Early Quenya

pirinumbe

noun. cylinder (hollow)

A word appearing in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s as ᴱQ. pirinumbe “cylinder (hollow)”, an elaboration of ᴱQ. pirin (pirind-) “thin rod, pin” (QL/74).

Neo-Quenya: Since I retain ᴺQ. pirin “thin rod, pin”, I would retain ᴺQ. pirinumbë “cylinder (hollow)” as well.
