1 axë
ks noun neck the bony part of the neck, not including throat, pl. axi given. Also sg. acas the alternative form axë is said to be later and seems to be an analogical back-formation from the pl. axi. The word is also used geographically of rock ridges. PE17:92 -
2 mat-
1 vb. "eat" MAT, VT45:32, also given as mata- VT39:5, pa.t. mantë "ate" VT39:7. The form matumnë is said to be future-past: "was going to eat", with the "OQ" Old Quenya? future-past element umnë VT48:32; possibly this could function independently as a form of the verb to be, hence was to be. It is not clear if the form matumnë is itself "Old Quenya" as if this is an archaic future-past formation, or it is just umnë as an independent word that is archaic. Note: Tolkien's translation of matumnë is actually "I was going to eat", but the pronoun "I" does not seem to be expressed in the Quenya form. Adj. or pseudo-participle \#matya eating in melumatya honey-eating PE17:68 -
3 nápat
noun "thumb and index as a pair", a dual formation. Apparently formed from \#nápa, an alternative form of nápo "thumb"; Telerin also has a final -a rather than -o in this word VT48:5; etymology, VT48:16 -
4 fairië
noun "freedom" LT1:250; since this is an abstract formation based on fairë "free", a meaning only ascribed to this word in early "Qenya" whereas fairë has a string of other meanings in Tolkien's later Quenya, the conceptual validity of fairië "freedom" may be questioned. -
5 yérë
noun *"sexual desire" VT46:23; the word is not really glossed, but looks like an abstract formation from the stem YER "feel sexual desire"
