tuksa

cardinal. gross, 144; hundred

In the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s, ᴱQ. tuksa was the number “144” [twelve twelves], also translated as a “gross” and based the early root ᴱ√TUKU (QL/95), apparently part of a duodecimal counting system. In this document, the word for “hundred” was ᴱQ. tuksa pínea [little hundred] or tuksa lempea [decimal hundred]. In the Early Qenya Grammar (EQG) of the 1920s, however, tuksa simply meant “hundred” without any reference to duodecimals (PE14/49, 83).

Neo-Quenya: For purposes of Neo-Quenya, I use ᴺQ. tuxa for “hundred” since there are no other clear alternatives.
