A neologism coined by Luinyelle in 2023-08-29 on the Vinyë Lambengolmor Discord Server (VLDS), based on √HEK “aside, apart, separate”, this word is “special” with a negative connotation (vs. ᴺQ. minima).
Quenya
úva-
verb. to impend, be imminent, draw near [usually negative in sense]
la-, lá-
prefix. {negative element}
áva
particle. don’t, negative imperative
hecima
adjective. special (negative)
A pseudo-verb meaning “impend, be imminent, draw near” related to the Quenya future suffix -uva, usually with a negative sense as Tolkien explained: “a strengthened form ūva was used ‘impend, be imminent’ nearly always in a bad sense: ‘threaten (to come)’ (PE22/167)”. This verb had only two forms: úva used for aorist, present and [near] future, and úvane used for the past (PE22/168). As an example of its use, Tolkien gave ulo úva “rain (unwelcome) is coming/threatens”, versus more ordinary future uluva “it is going to rain, it will rain”.
