I suppose there are 2 schools of thought here: one is that your irregularities
will develop naturally. The second asks for reasons behind the irregularities;
for instance, why is the word for 'sky' dual? Duals are nearly always defined
by objects that naturally appear in pairs (i.e., arms, eyes, etc) so there
would appear to be no reason for this. Therefore, you need to create one to
establish your 'historical' irregularity.

The noun sky is always in the dual number.
