tecil ("k")noun "pen" (TEK, PM:318, VT47:8)
tecil
noun. pen
A word for “a border, fringe, edge, limiting device” derived from the root √PEL “fence” (elsewhere glossed “encircle”) in notes from the mid-1960s (PE17/65). The Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s had ᴱQ. pelma “pen” under the early root ᴱ√PELE “fence in” (QL/73).
Neo-Quenya: Based on the usual meaning of the root, I would assume pelma is a limiting device that surrounds something, and therefore is usable for things like animal pens, the fringes of cloth, or the borders of a country.
