1 ua-
negative verb not do, not be. If a verb is to be negated, ua coming before the verb receives any pronominal endings and presumably also any endings for plurality or duality, -r or -t, whereas the uninflected tense-stem of the verb follows: With the ending -n for I, one can thus have constructions like uan carë *I do not aorist, uan carnë *I did not past, uan cára *I am not doing present, uan caruva *I shall not do future. The verb ua- can itself be fully conjugated: \#ua aorist or present?, únë past, úva future, \#uië perfect the aorist and perfect are attested only with the ending -n I. In archaic Quenya these tense-forms could be combined with an uninflected aorist stem, e.g. future *úvan carë = later Quenya uan caruva, I shall not do. In later Quenya, only the forms ua present or aorist and occasionally the past tense form \#únë were used in normal prose únen *I did not, was not. PE17:144; compare FS for úva as a future-tense negative verb will not -
2 elda
1. originally adj. "of the stars", but wholly replaced WJ:362 by: 2. noun Elda = one of the people of the Stars, high-elf, an Elf SA:êl, elen, Letters:281, ELED, ÉLED; notice that Tolkien abandoned a former etymology with "depart", chiefly in the pl. Eldar WJ:362, cf. GATH, TELES.The primitive form Tolkien variously cited as ¤eledā/ elenā Letters:281, PE17:152 and ¤eldā WJ:360. Partitive pl. Eldali VT49:8, gen. pl. Eldaron WJ:368, PM:395, 402;dative pl.eldain "for elves", for Eldar FS; possessive sg. Eldava "Elf's" WJ:407; possessive pl. Eldaiva WJ:368, Eldaivë governing a plural word WJ:369. The word Eldar properly refers to the non-Avari Elves only, but since Eldar rarely had any contact with the Avari, it could be used for "elves" in general in LT1:251, Elda is simply glossed "Elf". See also Eldo. The plural form Eldar should not require any article when the reference is to the entire people; i Eldar refers to a limited group, all the Elves previously named; nevertheless, Tolkien in some sources does use the article even where the reference seems to be generic i Eldar or i-Eldar, VT49:8. -
3 pirindë
noun a flower that opened and shut quickly with any change of light at ?some ?not even a pansy closed PE17:146; reading uncertain and meaning obscure; read perhaps at which not even a pansy closed Also pirnë. -
4 in
article, apparently a variant of the definite article i, observed in the phrase i-coimas in-Eldaron "the coimas lembas of the Eldar" in PM:403. It looks like the Sindarin plural article, but in Quenya i normally covers both sg. and pl. "the", and the word Eldar does not need any article at all. The alternative reading i-coimas Eldaron PM:395 is probably to be preferred. -
5 windya
vinya adj. "pale blue" WIN/WIND It is uncertain whether Tolkien rejected this word or not; in any case, vinya means "new" in his later versions of Quenya. -
6 quentasta
noun *"historical account", "any particular arrangement by some author of a series of records or evidences into a given historical account" not History as such, which is quentalë. VT39:16, VT48:19. May include the "group suffix" -asta. -
7 farnë
1 noun "foliage", archaic faznë VT46:9. Not to be confused with farnë as the pa.t. of the verb farya-, q.v. 2 noun "dwelling", in orofarnë as translated in Letters:224, but in other notes of Tolkiens the word was interpreted any growing thing or plant, PE17:83 -
8 metta
noun "end"; Ambar-metta "world-end, the end of the world" EO; mettarë *"end-day" = New Years' Eve in the Númenórean calendar and the Steward's Reckoning, not belonging to any month Appendix D. The word Mettanyë, heading the final part of the poem The Trees of Kortirion, would seem to be related LT1:43 -
9 mana
interogative, a word translated "what is" in the sentence mana i-coimas Eldaron? "what is the coimas lembas of the Eldar?" PM:395, a variant reading in PM:403 Either this is *ma "what" + ná "is", or mana may itself be a unitary word "what", and there is not really any word meaning "is" in the sentence. Since ma is assigned other meanings elsewhere, the latter interpretation may be the more likely. -
10 né
vb. was; see ná \#1. Also used as interjection yes when the meaning is it was so, it was as you say/ask VT49:31. Pl. nér were, dual nét VT49:30. Nésë he was VT49:29, though Tolkien elsewhere stated that né did not take any inflection of person VT49:31, pronominal endings rather being added to ane- the form anes *he was is attested. Anda né long ago VT49:31. vb. in pa.t. was; see ná \#1. -
11 írë
1 noun "desire". ID. In the pre-classical Tengwar system presupposed in the Etymologies, írë was also the name of a long carrier with an i-tehta above it, denoting long í. VT45:17. 2 conj. "when" subordinate conjunction, not question-word: írë Anarinya queluva, "when my sun faileth" FS. Compare yá \#2. 3 noun "eternal" read "eternity", as suggested by Christopher Tolkien, but the word was in any case changed to oirë GEY, VT45:13 -
12 hesto
noun "captain" VT45:22; the word is not explictly identified as Quenya but can hardly be any other language -
13 vinya
1 adj. "young" VT46:22, VT47:26, PE17:191 or "new" cf. compounds Vinyamar, Vinyarië below; cf. also winya "new, fresh, young" in a deleted entry in the Etymologies, VT45:16; there the word was first written as vinya. Vinya the Young, original name of the isle of Númenor among its own people SD:332. 2 windya adj. "pale blue" WIN/WIND It is uncertain whether Tolkien rejected this word or not; in any case, vinya is only attested with the meaning "young, new" in his later Quenya.
