Beware, older languages below! The languages below were invented during Tolkien's earlier period and should be used with caution. Remember to never, ever mix words from different languages!
A word for an “animal” or “beast” the Quenya Verbal System (QVS) from 1948, probably based on the root ᴹ√NĀ and thus originally meaning “✱being” (PE22/111, 116). It appeared in the phrases ᴹQ. farastea nasto “beast of the chase” and ᴹQ. farea nasto “hunting animal, beast of prey”, and in the latter phrase it replaced laman “animal” (PE22/116 note #92).
Neo-Quenya: This word appears nowhere else, and Q. laman “animal” reemerged in the Quendi and Eldar essay of 1959-60, so I prefer that word over nasto.
