4 yéva

vb. "will be" also "there will be", apparently the future tense of ye \#2. Once translated "is" írë ilqua yéva nótina, "when all is counted", but this event belongs to the future; hence literally *"when all will be counted" FS; VT46:22. In Tolkien's later Quenya, yéva was apparently replaced by nauva.
