wanwa

lost, gone

wanwa (1) _adj. older form of vanwa "lost, gone" etc. (see vanwa) (PE17:143)_

wanwa

great gale

wanwa (2) noun "great gale" _(LT1:266). This word would clash with vanwa "gone, lost" after the change of initial w > v, and since the latter is also said to come from older wanwa (PE17:143)_, this "Qenya" term for "great gale" is probably conceptually obsolete.

vanwa

gone, lost, no longer to be had, vanished, departed, dead, past, past and over, gone on the road, over

vanwa adj. "gone, lost, no longer to be had, vanished, departed, dead, past, past and over, gone on the road, over" (WJ:366, Nam, RGEO:67, WAN, LT1:264; older wanwa, PE17:143). The word was "not applied to _dead persons _except those who would not return, either because of a special doom (as [in the case of] Men) or because of a special will of their own (as Felagund or Míriel) or a special ban of Mandos (as Feanor)" (PE17:143). Also see avanwa.

wanwavoitë

windy

wanwavoitë noun "windy" (LT1:266). Compare wanwa above.

vangwë

blow

vangwë noun "blow" (PE17:34), i.e. a blast of wind

wáya-

blow

wáya- "blow" (PE17:34, cf. wanwa), perhaps altered to váva (q.v.; the wording of the source is unclear)

vailima

windy

vailima adj. "windy" (PE17:189)

vailima

adjective. windy

A word for “windy” in notes from December 1959 (D59), the adjectival form of Q. vailë “wind” (PE17/189).

Conceptual Development: A similar word ᴱQ. ’wanwavoite “windy” appeared in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s, an adjectival form of ᴱQ. ’wanwa “great gale” (QL/102).

váva

blow

váva vb.? "blow" (the wording used in the source is unclear, but wā-ya is said to mean "blow", and after discussing Sindarin forms Tolkien instructs himself to "alter Quenya", introducing a new primitive form ¤wā-wā with váva- as the Quenya outcome. Possibly this still means "blow" as a verb referring to wind.) PE17:34

gwaeren

adjective. windy

gwaeren

adjective. windy

A word appearing in the rejected name Côf Gwaeren Bel “Windy Bay of Bel” (VT42/15), an adjectival form of gwae “wind”. Despite this rejection, I think ᴺS. gwaeren “windy” is perfectly viable for purposes of Neo-Sindarin.

Conceptual Development: A likely precursor is G. {gwavwed >> gwanwed >>} gwavwed “windy” from the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s, an adjectival form of G. gwâ “wind” (GL/43).
