1 GIVE
anta- (pa.t. \#antanë is attested in VT49:14 [antanen “I gave”], though the pa.t. “gave” was ánë in early "Qenya", QL:31; possibly both forms are valid in later Quenya as well). In one text, Tolkien apparently used ana as the imperative "give!", but the text was rewritten and this may have been an ephemeral form (VT44:13). GIVE INSTRUCTIONS TO, see INSTRUCT. GIVER antë (f), anto (m) (the latter word from Etym is probably obsoleted by anto "mouth" in LotR:1157 – an alternative word for "[male] giver" might be *antando). Another fem. word for "giver" is \#ánië, isolated from massánië (see BREAD-GIVER). –ANA, VT44:13, PM:404 -
2 POWER
For "power" as an abstract, the word túrë "mastery, strength, might" may be used. The word Valar is sometimes translated "the Powers" (and the sg. vala is defined as "angelic power" in LotR Appendix E), but this word obviously has a specialized meaning: the "gods" of Tolkien's legendarium.
