1 SMALL
níca, *nincë (said to have "good senses"; the latter is given in the archaic form "ninki" and would therefore have the stem-form ninci-), nípa, *nimpë (said to be used "usually with connotation of weakness"; the latter adj. is given in the archaic form nimpi and would therefore have the stem-form nimpi-), pitya (the latter is never translated by Tolkien, but Pitya-naucor is glossed "petty-dwarves", and pica "small spot" must be derived from the same root.) In one compound, Tolkien seemingly changed pitya to nitya (see PM:365, VT48:15). Cf. also nauca, an adjective "especially applied to things that though in themselves full-grown were smaller or shorter than their kind, and were hard, twisted, or ill-shapen." LT1:256 has an adjective inya "small", but this is probably not a valid word in LotR-style Quenya (in which language *inya may mean "my, mine".) –VT48:18, VT47:26, PIK, WJ:389, 413 -
2 SMALL INSECT
pí (fly); SMALL MAN, see MAN; SMALL STONE sar (stem sard-, as in pl. sardi); YOUNG OR SMALL WOMAN, see GIRL. –VT47:35, SAR -

5 INSECT
(small insect) pí (fly) –VT47:35 -
6 TRINKET
(small thing of personal adornment) netil –VT47:33 -
7 ALTHOUGH
(or "nothwithstanding") – Christopher Gilson argues that the word ómu occurring in an untranslated "Qenya" text could have this meaning (PE15:32, 37). If this interpretation is regarded as too uncertain, the idea expressed by phrases involving "(al)though" may be rephrased using ananta "and yet" (e.g. "although the house is small, we love it" > *i coa pitya ná, ananta melilmes = "the house is small, and yet we love it"). -
8 HARD
sarda, nauca (the latter also meaning ill-shapen, twisted, *small – see SMALL.); hranga (hard; awkward, stiff, difficult). Note: hranga- is also a verb “thwart”. ––VT39:17, WJ:413, PE17:154, 185 -
9 ILL-SHAPEN
nauca (hard, twisted, *small – see SMALL.) –WJ:413 -
10 TWISTED
nauca (hard, ill-shapen, *small – see SMALL.) –WJ:413 -
11 ADORN
netya- (trim). (Note: netya is also an adj. "pretty, dainty".) SMALL THING OF PERSONAL ADORNMENT netil –VT47:33 -
12 BIRD
aiwë, filit (pl filici) (Note: both aiwë and filit are stated to mean "small bird", not "bird" in general), ambalë, ammalë (= yellow bird), lindo (= "singer", singing bird). LT1:273 also has wilin; this may or may not be a valid word in LotR-style Quenya. –AIWĒ, PHILIK, SMAL, LIN -
13 BOAT
luntë; SMALL BOAT venë (vessel, dish) –LUT, LT1:254 -
14 CAVE
felya, rondo, rotelë, rotto (small grot, tunnel), ARTIFICIAL CAVE hróta (dwelling underground, rockhewn hall) –PHÉLEG, ROD, LT2:347, PM:365, VT46:12 -

venë (small boat, vessel) –LT1:254 -
16 DOT
pica (small spot), tixë (tiny mark, point), amatixë (point over the line of writing; variant amatexë in VT46:19), unutixë (point under the line of writing; the initial element unu- was misread as "nun-" in the Etymologies as printed in LR, see VT46:19) –PIK, TIK/VT46:19 -
17 DWARF
Nauco (pl. Naucor is attested; LT1:261 gives nauca instead of nauco), Norno (Naucalië, Nornalië = the whole people of the Dwarves) Casar (pl. Casari or Casári; partitive plural Casalli; the whole people of the Dwarves being called Casallië. According to WJ, Casar – Quenyaized form of Dwarvish Khazâd – "was the word most commonly used in Quenya for the Dwarves". Nauco "stunted one" and norno "thrawn one" are less polite words for "dwarf"; yet norno is stated to be "the more friendly term". But the Dwarves themselves would definitely prefer Casar.) PETTY-DWARVES Picinaucor, Pitya-naucor (lit. *"small dwarves"), Attalyar (lit. "Bipeds"). DWARROWVAULT Casarrondo (Khazad-dûm) –NAUK, WJ:388, 389 -
18 FISH
lingwë (stem *lingwi-) (perhaps the general word, as opposed to hala), SMALL FISH hala, "FISH-WATCHER" (i.e., kingsfisher, a bird) halatir (halatirn-) or halatirno –LIW, SKAL2, TIR -
19 FLY
(verb) \#wil- (cited in source as wilin "I fly", 1st pers. aorist), pa.t. willë (cf. wili- "sail, float, fly" in LT1:273). In exilic Quenya, read v- for w- in these words. FLY TO (i.e. "escape to") \#ruc- (+ allative, e.g. *rucin i orontinnar "I fly to the mountains"; the verb ruc- otherwise means "fear", constructed with "from" of the object feared); FLY OR STREAM IN THE WIND hlapu- (part. hlápula is attested), FLYING rimpa (rushing); SEND FLYING horta- –WIL, VT44:7, MC:223, RIP, KHOR (noun) pí (small insect) –VT47:35 -
20 GIRL
wen (stem wend-, as in the pl. wendi) (maid). The word seldë was not clearly glossed by Tolkien, but appears to mean "female child", hence "girl". The form wendi "young or small woman, girl" in VT48:18 is perhaps intended as the older form of wendë ("maiden") rather than a "contemporary" Quenya word. The form "wenki" from the same source may have a similar meaning, and again it is possible that this is actually Common Eldarin for Quenya *wencë, wenci-. –LT1:271, VT46:13, VT48:18
