Albanian

Një ari

Etymology

Back-formation from plural arinj, inherited plural of Old Albanian ar 'bear', shortening of *arth, where -th was mistaken for a diminutive suffix, from Proto-Albanian *artsa, from Proto-Indo-European *h₂ŕ̥tḱos. In clusters of two stops (here: tḱ), the first element (here: t) was regularly lost in Proto-Albanian.
