Early Quenya

horinel

noun. pine-needle

A word appearing as ᴱQ. horinel “pine-needle” in the Qenya Lexicon, a combination of ᴱQ. hóre “pine” and some variant of ᴱQ. nelma “needle” (QL/41, 65). Its plural was horinelli, indicating a stem form of horinell-.

Neo-Quenya: I would update this word to ᴺQ. sononel (sononelm-) using my preferred word ᴺQ. sono [þ] for “pine”.
