tuvu-

verb. to receive, accept, take, require, cost

lep-

verb. to take

A verb appearing in Qenya Verb Forms from the 1910s as ᴱQ. lep- “take” (PE14/28), clearly based on the early root ᴱ√LEPE having to do with fingers (QL/53).

Neo-Quenya: This root was still the basis for finger-words in Tolkien’s later writings, and in notes from the late 1960s, √LEP was glossed “pick (up/out) with the fingers” (VT47/24). As such I would retain this as the verb for “take”, but more specifically “take (with fingers)” so closer in meaning to “✱pick, pluck”.
