tamma

tool

tamma noun "tool" (PE17:108)

tamma

noun. tool

A word for “tool”, an instrumental form of the root √TAM “construct” in notes from the late 1960s (PE17/107).

carma

noun. tool, implement, means, weapon

A noun meaning either a “tool, weapon” or “tool, implement, means”, an instrumental formation of car- “doing”, hence originally simply a “✱thing for doing/making” (PE17/114; PE22/152).

Neo-Quenya: This word is similar in meaning to tamma “tool” based on √TAM “construct”, but for purposes of Neo-Quenya I would assume carma is a more general term for a mechanism to get something done, so including non-physical things like “means”, as opposed to tamma “tool” which is more specifically a (physical) instrument for constructing something.

maica

noun. blade of a cutting tool or weapon (especially sword-blade)

A noun appearing in notes associated with the Quendi and Eldar essay of 1959-60, glossed “blade of a cutting tool or weapon, especially sword-blade” derived from the root √MAK “cut, hew” (VT39/11). The Elves were somewhat uncertain of the ancient origin of this noun and Tolkien said:

> By some loremasters it was brought into relation with a small group of supposed ancient “desiderative” formations with intruded i ... Maika would [in ancient Elvish] thus be interpretted as “eager, fit, ready to cut”, and it might well be brought into relation with the idea often found in ancient tales that swords were greedy and thirsty (VT39/11).

Conceptual Development: Earlier “blade” words in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s include ᴱQ. valke (valki-) “edge, sharp blade” under the early root ᴱ√VḶKḶ (QL/101) and ᴱQ. hyanda “blade, share” under the early root ᴱ√HYAŘA [HYAÐA] “plough through” (QL/41). Early Noldorin Word-lists of the 1920s had ᴱQ. tále as a cognate to ᴱN. dail “axe-blade”, both derived from primitive ᴱ✶daglé (PE13/141). The Early Qenya Phonology of the 1920s had the similar noun ᴱQ. taila “blade” derived from primitive ᴱ✶dagla (PE14/66).

A word given as {killa “edge, cutting edge” >>} kíma “edge of a cutting weapon/tool” in Late Notes on Verb Structure (LVS) from 1969, derived from the root {√KIL(IM) >>} √KIM “edge, brink of” (PE22/149 and note #26).

carma

helm

carma (2) noun "helm" (helmet) in Carma-cundo ("k") "Helm-guardian" (PM:260). Notice that in PE17:114, Tolkien indicated that he rather wanted carma to mean "tool" or "weapon", leaving the status of carma "helmet" uncertain. Possibly shortened to -car in the names Eldacar (Elfhelm?), Hallacar (Tall-helm?) Cf. also cassa in Etym.

As usual, the spelling of the Etym forms shows q instead of qu_.) _According to PM:318 and VT47:8, the "chief use [of this word] was in reference to the tightly closed hand as in using an implement or a craft-tool rather than to the 'fist' as used in punching".
