1 emmë
1 noun "mummy", hypocoristic form of "mother", also used in children's play for "index finger" and "index toe" VT47:10, 26, VT48:4, 6, 17, 19. Also emya. 2 pron. "we", emphatic pronoun; dative emmen VT43:12, 20. In the source this pronoun is intended as the 1st person plural exclusive; later Tolkien changed the corresponding pronominal ending from -mmë to -lmë, and the plural emphatic pronoun would likewise change from emmë to *elmë. Since the ending -mmë was redefined as a dual exclusive pronoun, the form emmë may still be valid as such, as a dual emphatic pronoun "we" = "she and I". -
2 indis
noun, translated "wife" in UT:8, but the form is assigned the meaning "bride" in other places the regular translation of "wife" is rather veri or vessë. Indis "Bride", name of the goddess Nessa. NDIS-SĒ /SĀ NETH, NIsup1/sup, NDER, I ; Indis Nessa *"Bride Nessa", title and name of the Valië NETH The stem-form of indis "bride" is somewhat obscure; according to VT45:37 the stem could be indiss- pl. indissi given, but the alternative form pl. form inderi shows a curious shift from i to e as well as the more regular change from s via z to r between vowels compare the pl. of olos, q.v. The stem indiss- may be preferred by writers. -
3 et
prep. and adv.? "out", when followed by ablative "out of" VT45:13 or literally "out from", as in EO: et Eärello "out of the Great Sea"; cf. also et sillumello "from this hour" in VT44:35. Et i pe/péti, untranslated phrase, perhaps *"out of the mouth" VT47:35. Prefixet- "forth, out" ET, also in longer form ete- as in etelehta, eteminya; verb ettuler *"are coming forth" ettul- = et + tul-. SD:290; read probably *ettulir or continuative *ettúlar in Tolkien's later Quenya. The forms etemmë and etengwë VT43:36 seem to incorporate pronominal suffixes for "us", hence ?"out of us", inclusive and exclusive respectively. The pronoun -mmë denoted plural inclusive "we" when this was written, though Tolkien would later make it dual exclusive instead see -mmë. Second person forms are also given: etelyë, etellë ?"out of you", sg. and pl. respectively Tolkien would later change the ending for pl. you from -llë to -ldë. -
4 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. -
5 arya
1 adj. excelling, used as the comparative form of mára good, hence *better PE17:57. The superlative *best is i arya with the article, with genitive to express *the best of Cf. mára. 3 noun "twelve hours, day" ARsup1/sup; compare aurë. In deleted notes this word was also used as an adjective: "of the day, light" VT45:6. Still according to VT45:6, arya is also the name of Tengwa \#26 in the pre-classical Tengwar system presupposed in the Etymologies, but Tolkien would later call \#26 arda instead indeed arya was changed from arda in the source; Tolkien would later change his mind back again. The abandoned name arya suggests that the letter was to have the value ry rather than rd as in the classical system outlined in LotR Appendix E. Since the word for day daylight period is given as aurë in later sources, and arya is assigned other meanings in late material see \#1, 2 above, the conceptual validity of arya day is questionable.% -
6 esta
2 adj. "first" ESE/ESET; this entry was marked with a query. The word Yestarë q.v. *"Beginning-day" in LotR suggests that Tolkien decided to change the stem in question to *YESE/YESET. We could then read *yesta for esta but later this became a noun beginning rather than an adj. first, PE17:120 and also prefix a y to the other words derived from ESE/ESET essë *yessë, essëa *yessëa. Estanossë noun "the firstborn", read likewise *Yestanossë *Yestanessi? but in a later text, Tolkien used Minnónar q.v. for "the Firstborn" as a name of the Elves, and this form may be preferred. In the Etymologies as printed in LR, the word Estanossë is cited as "Estanesse", but according to VT45:12, the second-to-last vowel is actually o in Tolkien's manuscript. -
7 asto
noun "dust" ÁS-AT. According to VT45:6, asto was the name of tengwa \#13 in the pre-classical system presupposed in the Etymologies, but Tolkien would later change the name of this letter to anto its Quenya value changing from st to nt. -
8 wanwa
1 adj. older form of vanwa lost, gone etc. see vanwa PE17:143 2 noun "great gale" LT1:266. This word would clash with vanwa gone, lost after the change of initial w v, and since the latter is also said to come from older wanwa PE17:143, this Qenya term for great gale is probably conceptually obsolete.
