Beware, older languages below! The languages below were invented during Tolkien's earlier period and should be used with caution. Remember to never, ever mix words from different languages!
A word appearing as ᴱQ. tyetse “a teat” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1920s under the early root ᴱ√TYETE “give suck” (QL/50), also appearing in the contemporaneous Poetic and Mythological Words of Eldarissa with the gloss “teat” (PME/50).
Neo-Quenya: I think this word is worth retaining as ᴺQ. tyetsë “teat, ✱nipple” for purposes of Neo-Quenya.
