1 GIRDLE
\#lesta (isolated from \#Lestanórë; see DORIATH. \#Lesta is the cognate of Sindarin lest as in Lest [or List] Melian "the Girdle of Melian" [WJ:228]. Note: \#lesta also means "measure".) GIRDLE, BELT quilta. –WJ:369, Silm:390, QL:78 -
2 BELT
quilta (girdle) –QL:78 -
3 GIRD
Early “Qenya” material has a verb qilti- “gird, encircle” (QL:78); read perhaps *quilta- if the verb is to be adapted to Tolkien’s later Quenya (cf. the noun quilta “belt, girdle”). -
4 LEAVE
(vb) auta- (go away, pass), pa.t. oantë, oantië (in the physical sense "went away [to another place]") or vánë ("the most frequently used past [tense]" – less "physical" than oantë, meaning "disappeared" rather than "went away"), perf. avánië (pl avánier is attested); perf. vánië with no augment may occur in verse. For "leave", Etym also has lesta, pa.t. lendë; this is also the past tense of "go". The stem from which lesta- is derived was "replaced" by another. Lesta has a wholly different meaning in later writings; see GIRDLE, MEASURE. LEAVE OUT hehta- (pa.t. hehtanë is given but seems perfectly regular) (put aside, exclude, abandon, forsake) –WJ:366, ELED (noun) – with leave of: lenémë (+ genitive) -
5 MEASURE
\#lesta (only attested in instrumental form lestanen "in measure". Note: \#lesta also means "girdle".) –FS
