According to Pokorny PIE *snew- gave Albanian <nus> `Bindfaden,
Schnur' as the Greek <neuro-> and Latin <nervus>.

Such a word can not be found in any Albanian dictionary and neither
had Abdullah mentioned it in his Albanian Inherited Dictionary.
Is this word lost or should we be looking for another form of it ?

In apparence the word is similar to Albanian <nuse> 'bride'. But is
there any connection between them ?
