1 NUMERAL
\#notessë (attested in pl. form notessi). In a Tengwar text, the word appears with a long ó (nótessi, sg. \#nótessë). –VT47:14, VT48:14 -
2 THREE
neldë (the “Qenya” form olë in LT1:258 apparently did not survive into Tolkien’s later Quenya). Tolkien used neldë to illustrate the syntax of numerals “from…3 onwards”: The numeral follows the noun, which also receives any case endings, and the numeral is indeclinable: eleni neldë “three stars”, genitive elenion neldë “of three stars”. – In older usage, the noun would appear in the genitive plural, so that “three stars” would be elenion neldë (literally, three of stars) and case endings would be added to the numeral, so that genitive “of three stars” would be elenion neldëo; notice that the numeral inflects as a singular noun. –NEL, SA:neldor, VT47:11, VT48:6, VT49:45 -
3 ONLY
er (but, still). In later sources, er is rather presented as the numeral “one”. Cf. also eressë (singly, alone, but in Tolkien’s later Quenya used as noun = solitude) –LT1:269, ERE -
4 THOUSAND
No term is yet known for LotR-style Quenya; in one version of earlier "Qenya" this numeral was húmë (PE13:50). Pl. húmi is attested (used after other numbers, as in "two thousand", i.e. "two thousands"). In later Sindarin the word was apparently meneg (as in Menegroth, the Thousand Caves). The Quenya cognate has been theorized to be *mencë, but húmë may be used until a later term becomes available. -
5 TWO
atta. When constructed with a noun, atta follows and the noun is wholly uninflected: elen atta “two stars”. Case endings (the simplest, normally “singular” ones) are added to the numeral: genitive elen atto “of two stars”. –AT(AT)/Letters:427, VT48:6, VT49:44-45
