Quenderin

quendian, belonging to the elves as a whole

Quenderin adj."Quendian, belonging to the Elves as a whole" (a learned word) (WJ:407). The phrase quenderinwë coar "Elvish bodies" (PE17:175) presupposes a longer form *quenderinwa, here attested in the pl.

quenderin

noun/adjective. Quendian, of the Quendi, belonging to the Elves as a whole

Collective term for all the races of the elves and their languages, including the Avari (WJ/407), a combination of Quendë “Elf” and the suffix -rin. As a term for languages, it was often translated as “Quendian”. An archaic variant quenelya was used as an adjective only (PE19/93).

Conceptual Development: The term ᴹQ. Qenderin also appeared in linguistic notes from the 1930s (PE18/23).

the oldest q form

¤mbelekōro masc. name, mentioned as "the oldest Q form" of Melkor, q.v. This is obviously a form that belongs to Common Eldarin rather than Quenya as we know it: Notice that it is marked (in the source asterisked) as unattested _(WJ:402). _It may be that "Q" here means "Quendian" rather than Quenya.
