lempë (alternative form lemen in VT48:6). For the syntax of numerals, see THREE. GROUP OF FIVE (5 similar things) maqua (basically "hand", with 5 fingers), PAIR OF FIVES maquat (see GROUP OF TEN). For ordinals and fractions, see FIFTH. –LEP/GL:53, VT47:7, 10, 24 -
4 GROUP OF
FIVE (5 similar things) maqua (basically "hand", with 5 fingers); GROUP OF TEN (10 similar things) maquat (dual of maqua, here referring to a "pair of fives") –VT47:7, 10 -
5 HUSBAND
venno (the published Etymologies gives "verno", but according to VT45:7, this is a misreading of Tolkien's original manuscript); HUSBAND AND WIFE veru (married pair – but in a late source, veru is also used for “husband” alone, the counterpart of veri “wife”) –BES, VT49:45 -
6 PARENT
\#nostar (only pl nostari is attested); also ontar with gender-specific forms ontaro (m), ontarë or ontari (f) (begetter). The plural form "ontani" in LR:379 is according to VT46:7 a misreading for ontaru, evidently a dual form denoting a natural pair of parents. –LotR:1017 cf. Letters:308, ONO, VT44:7, VT46:7
