cemnassë

noun. earthenware, pottery

A neologism coined by Paul Strack in 2023 specifically for Eldamo, the Quenya equivalent of [N.] cevnas “earthenware”. Tamas Ferencz instead suggested ᴺQ. cennassë “pottery, ceramic vessel” but it doesn’t match the root form ᴹ√KEM. He also suggested ᴺQ. centánië “ceramics, pottery-craft” based on [ᴹQ.] kentano “potter”, this word is also problematic because ᴹQ. tano became tamo in Tolkien’s later writings.
