Early Primitive Elvish

qolo

root. *disease

An unglossed root in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s with derivatives like ᴱQ. qolo- “ail” and ᴱQ. qolu “disease” (QL/78).

Neo-Eldarin: I think it worth positing a Neo-Eldarin root ᴺ√KWOL to preserve some of these Early Qenya words, but bear in mind there is strong evidence that the combination quo- was not possible in Tolkien later iterations of Quenya, as discussed in the entry for how [[q|[wo] became [o]]] in Quenya.
