The linguists say the Albanian language word urë/bridge comes from Proto-Albanian *warā, from Proto-Indo-European *h₂wer- ("to cover") (compare Mesapian urios ("doors"), Oscan veru ("door"), Old Norse vǫr ("row of stones ”) , ver ( "dam" )).
Linguists sometimes make things that are very simple very complicated. I've always said that when you don't know something and you're going to learn it at first it seems very complicated. After you learn it and apply it in most cases you realize that it was very simple.
UR has only two letters U and R.
You already know that the Albanian language comes from an written ancient language in a monosyllabic pictographic script (Vinca script) and it is not a peripheral language as someone likes to consider it or might think, but the central language of the Indo-European trunk.
The Albanian language taught me this from the beginning, 30 years ago, and it was my first conclusion after analyzing almost all its words. The following is not etymology:
UR
U- Shape of the first man-made bridges.
The bridge is a U pictogram, an inverted U.
R- the R code you already know, R is the shape of the Ures arch, the arch of the bridge.

How were bridges built in ancient times?
The old Albanians used stones by placing them one on top of the other, stacked one by one to make the bridge columns and in a curved shape between the columns that would serve as a horizontal support beam.
After the first bridge was built the name was decided, and they put UR because they had built their own pictographic alphabet a long time ago.
The presence of R in Albanian language words like ure/bridge, rreth/circle, hark/bow, tra/beam, dru/wood, trup/body, tru/brain, etc. is not a coincidence, but it is a deliberate human construction, not apriori as the Swiss Ferdinand de Saussure (died in 1913) says. Maybe Ferdinand was well paid by someone at the time who was and is interested in not revealing this, and the best way to stifle the study of language in this direction was by setting up a theory, the theory of the apriori construction of the language. This theory would poison the minds of language students for generations to come. And so it happened.
