1 WHAT,
evidently mana as in mana i coimas Eldaron[?] "what is the coimas [lembas] of the Eldar?" (PM:396). See also WHO. Where "what" means "that which", it may be translated by a relative pronoun, as in lá carita i hamil mára "not to do what you judge good" –VT42:33 -
2 ASK
\#maquet- (only pa.t. maquentë is attested. The word is not translated, but undoubtedly means "asked": 'Mana i·coimas in·Eldaron?' maquentë Elendil [PM:403]. The question itself is translated "What is the coimas of the Eldar?", so the rest must be "Elendil asked". Furthermore, maquentë is transparently quentë "said" with the interrogative element ma [PM:357] prefixed.) ASK FOR – see DEMAND. -
3 JUDGE
(vb) \#nam- (1st person aorist namin "I judge" in VT41:13). An alternative form \#nav- occurs in navilwë "we judge" –VT42:34, VT48:11 (noun) Námo (Ordainer – the name of a Vala. In MR:150, though, Námo is glossed JUDGEMENT [of what is]). Note: a homophone námo means "person". –Silm:411 -
4 LO
ela (look! see!) (directing sight to an actually visible object), also yé (now see!) Note: a homophone means "what is more". –WJ:362 cf. 360, VT47:31 -
5 MORE
ambë (adverb), amba (adjective/noun), “used of any kind of measurement spatial, temporal, or quantitative” (note that amba is also the adverb “up”). Early material lists lil as a term for “more”. ONE MORE enta (another). (Note: a homophone means "that yonder"). MOREOVER, FURTHERMORE, WHAT IS MORE entë, yëa, yé (Note: yé is also an interjection "lo! now see!") See FURTHERMORE. –PE17:91, PE14:80, VT47:15, 31 -
6 NOW
sí, sín/sin (the latter form may evidently be used when the next word has an initial vowel; cf. the distribution of "a" and "an" in English. However, sí may also occur before vowels; the word appears before ar "and" in a text published in VT43:27.) Variant si. NOW SEE! (interjection) yé (lo!) Note: a homophone means "what is more". –SI, cf. LR:47, VT43:27, VT43:34, VT47:31, VT49:18 -
7 SEE
cen- (behold) (future tense cenuva and imperative cena are attested), véla- (the latter maybe primarily "see" = "meet"). Also see LOOK AT. Interjections: SEE! ela (lo! look!) (directing sight to an actually visible object) NOW SEE! yé (lo!) Note: a homophone means "what is more". –MC:222, VT47:31, Arct, WJ:362 cf. 360, VT47:31
