Thanks for contributing to Parf Edhellen!

sen- is attested with a similar yet different gloss “to let loose, free, let go” in VT43/18, whereas allow is already covered by √LEK “loose, unbind, let, permit” and √DAB “give way, make room, permit, allow”. Could you explain why you think sen- would have those additional glosses?

Hello

The group should've been 'neologism'.

The other words were in primitive elvish. And I thought it would sound logic to link the word to these meanings.

But after all I'm not sure, so I can believe I'm wrong.

I don’t quite understand what you mean?

  • Quenya sen- is attested in VT43/18 and appears as an Eldamo entry and a Quettaparma Quenyallo entry on Parf Edhellen.
  • Primitive Elvish √sen is not strictly speaking attested, but can be inferred from VT43/18 as well, it appears as an Eldamo entry on Parf Edhellen.
  • the one gloss in this passage is “let loose, free, let go” which all of the entries have. I don’t think “let, allow, allow to, permit, permit to” appears anywhere.

I think I was wrong. I'm sorry.

No problem!
