teluste
noun. extremity
A noun appearing as ᴱQ. teluste “extremity” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s, an elaboration of ᴱQ. telu “end, close” (QL/91).
Neo-Quenya: In Tolkien’s later writings telu means “last”, but that’s close enough to the earlier meaning that I think we can retain ᴺQ. telustë “extremity” for purposes of Neo-Quenya.
