One of a set of Quenya “teen” numbers appearing in rough notes on numbers from the late 1960s as kanakwe and likely meaning “fourteen” (VT48/21). I am of the opinion that this is a primitive form, and the modern Quenya form would be ✱canquë, though ✱canaquë is certainly possible. There was also a variant form quaican.
Conceptual Development: The Early Qenya Grammar of the 1910s had ᴱQ. kankea “fourteen” based on the earlier adjectival word ᴱQ. kea “ten” (PE14/49, 82).
canaquë ("k, kw") cardinal "fourteen" (VT48:21).The spelling "kanakwe" occurring in the primary source could suggest that this is really a Common Eldarin form; if so, one could theorize that the Quenya form would be canquë with syncope of the middle vowel (the same source lists "minikwe" as a word for 11, and the Quenya form is known to be minque rather than **miniquë**). On the other hand, in the same source "tolokwe" as a word for 18 is listed together with definite Quenya forms and is apparently an unorthodox spelling of toloquë** (as observed by the editor): Here no syncope producing *tolquë occurs.
