1 ondo
noun "stone" LT2:342, LT1:254 probably only ondo in LotR-style Quenya, see below. Various "Qenya" forms: ondoli "rocks" MC:213; this would be a partitive plural in LotR-style Quenya, ondolin "rocks" MC:220, ondoisen "upon rocks" MC:221, ondolissen "rocks-on" MC:214; the latter form, partitive plural locative, is still valid in LotR-style Quenya. noun "stone" as a material, also "rock" UT:459, GOND. Pl. ondor in an earlier variant of Markirya; partitive pl. locative ondolissë "on rocks" in the final version. Compounded in ondomaitar sculptor in stone PE17:163, Ondoher masc.name, *"Stone-lord" ondo alluding to Ondonórë = Sindarin Gondor, "stone-land" Appendix A, \#ondolunca k stonewain, possessive form in the place-name Nand Ondoluncava Stonewain Valley PE17:28, also Ondoluncanando as a compound. Ondolindë place-name "Gondolin" SA:gond, J.R.R. Tolkien: Artist & Illustrator p. 193; see Ondo. Earlier "Qenya" has Ondolinda changed from Ondolin "singing stone, Gondolin" LT1:254 -
2 atalantë
noun "downfall, overthrow, especially as name Atalantë of the downfallen land of Númenor" DAT/DANT, TALÁT, Akallabêth, SD:247, 310; also LR:47, VT45:26. Variant atalantië "Downfall", said to be a normal noun-formation in Quenya Letters:347, footnote. From the common noun atalantë "collapse, downfall" is derived the adj. atalantëa "ruinous, downfallen", pl. atalantië in Markirya changed to sg. atalantëa this change does not make immediate sense, since the adjective undoubtedly modifies a plural noun, but Tolkien does not always let adjectives agree in number. -
3 Valatári
noun "Vala-queen" BAL; this entry of the Etymologies states that Vala has no feminine form except this compound, but Silm gives Valië as a feminine form. The word Valatári is apparently also the unchanged plural form, so used in this quote: "The Valatári were Varda, Yavanna, Nienna, Vana, Vaire, Este, Nessa, Uinen" BAL; Tolkien later reclassified Uinen as a Maia, not a Valatári/Valië. Notice that the plural form of Valatar would apparently also be *Valatári. -
4 on
noun "stone" LT2:342, LT1:254 probably only ondo in LotR-style Quenya, see below. Various "Qenya" forms: ondoli "rocks" MC:213; this would be a partitive plural in LotR-style Quenya, ondolin "rocks" MC:220, ondoisen "upon rocks" MC:221, ondolissen "rocks-on" MC:214; the latter form, partitive plural locative, is still valid in LotR-style Quenya. -
5 wendë
noun "maid" GWEN, wendë vendë "maiden" WEN/WENED, VT45:16, VT47:17. Sana wendë that maiden PE16:96 cf. 90. According to VT47:17, this word for "maiden" is "applied to all stages up to the fully adult until marriage".Early "Qenya" also had wendi "maid, girl" LT1:271; this may look like a plural form in Tolkiens later Quenya. On the other hand, VT48:18 lists a word wendi "young or small woman, girl". It is unclear whether this is Quenya or a Common Eldarin form, but probably the former: PE17:191 displays the word for maiden as wendē, so the Quenya stem form is probably *wende- rather than wendi-, the stem-form that would result from Common Eldarin *wendi. In his Quenya translation of the Sub Tuum Praesidium, Tolkien used Wendë/Vendë to translate "virgin" with reference to the Virgin Mary. Here the plural genitive Wenderon appears in the phrase Wendë mi Wenderon "Virgin of Virgins"; we might have expected *Wendion instead VT44:18.If the pl. form of wendë is *wender rather than wendi, as the gen.pl. wenderon suggests, this may be to avoid confusion with the sg. wendi girl. -
6 illi
noun "all" as independent noun, apparently treated as a plural form. Imb' illi "among all" VT47:30 -
7 Tintallë
noun "Kindler", a title of Varda who kindled the stars TIN, Nam, RGEO:67. From tinta- "kindle, make to sparkle" MR:388. According to PE17:69, the form should be Tintalde, apparently because -llë was at the time the ending for plural you and Tintallë could be taken as meaning *you kindle rather than as a noun Kindler. However, Tolkien later changed the pronominal suffix, eliminating the clash of forms while leaving Tintallë correct after the revision, it was *tintaldë itself that would be the verb you kindle. -
8 yúyo
noun? adv.? "both" YŪ, VT48:10. Used adjectivally in yúyo má both hands; notice that the noun following yúyo receives no plural or dual marker. -
9 hlón
noun "sound", "a noise" VT48:29. Also hlóna. The stem of hlón is apparently hlon- if hloni "sounds" in WJ:394 is its plural form. -
10 calma
noun "lamp, a light, device for shining light Appendix E, KAL, PE17:123, 180, also name of tengwa \#3 cf. calmatéma, which was also already its name in the mostly pre-classical Tengwar system presupposed in the Etymologies VT45:18, there spelt "kalma". In early "Qenya", calma "k" meant"daylight" LT1:254; in MC:213, the word is translated "light".Plural instrumental calmainen "k" "lights-by", by lights MC:216 -
11 noirë
noun "tomb", isolated from Noirinan, q.v. This compound may suggest that noirë has the stem-form noiri-, unless the compound is supposed to contain a plural form "tombs". -
12 onna
noun "creature" ONO, child PE17:170, also translated "child" in the plural compound Aulëonnar "Children of Aulë", a name of the Dwarves PM:391, and apparently also used = child in the untranslated sentence nai amanya onnalya ter coivierya k *be it that your child will be blessed thoughout his/her life VT49:41. The form onya q.v., used as a vocative *"my child", is perhaps shortened from *onnanya. -
13 úvië
noun "considering a matter with a view to decision" VT48:32 Not to be confused with the plural form of úvëa. -

16 inwis
noun change of mind, mood. A following, bracketed form inwissi is either the plural, the ancestral form or a variant PE17:191; cf. inwisti. Likely, inwis is to have the stem inwiss- before endings alternatively inwist-, see inwisti below, and compare the verb vista- to change. -
17 -hildi
noun "followers" used = mortal men, the Second-born of Ilúvatar KHIL also Hildor, q.v.. Dat. pl. hildin "for men", a dative pl. occurring in Fíriel's Song. Cf. hildinyar "my heirs", evidently *hildë, hildo "follower, heir" + -inya "my" + -r plural ending EO -
