it is considered to be an isolated aspect, an inovation which
appeared just in Latin (maybe influenced by quater, qua:rtus).
There are some other exaamples as Ligurian "Kuadronia" but they
are considered to be not very sure.
what about the "ër" in Albanian "katër" then? If "katër" should
be a loan from Latin "quattor", is the "ër" an adaptation,
to Albanian language ? I have to say, I am missing the work of
G. Meyer and that of Pedersen for seeing their argumentation here.
