Isilya (þ) noun, third day of the Eldarin six-day week, dedicated to the Moon (Appendix D)
isima (þ?) noun “imagination” (if a variant of síma, q.v.; the form isima as such is not clearly glossed) (VT49:16)
isintë pa.t. vb. "knew", irregular pa.t. of ista- (besides sintë) (VT48:25; in VT48:32 this is analyzed as being the same formation as oantë)
isqua ("q") adj. "wise" (LT2:339).
issë noun "knowledge, lore" (LT2:339; rather ista or istya in Tolkien's later Quenya)
-issë a feminine ending, as in Írissë (PM:345)
ista (1) noun "knowledge" (IS). Also istya.
ista- (2) vb. "know", pa.t. sintë (IS, LT2:339, VT48:25). This past tense Tolkien called "certainly irregular" (VT48:25, where an alternative pa.t. isintë is also mentioned, but sintë is said to be the older form; compare editorial notes in VT48:32. Ista- is also used for "can" in the sense of "know how to", as in istan quetë "I can speak (because I have learned (a) language)" (VT41:6) Passive participle sinwa “known, certain, ascertained” (VT49:68)
Istar noun "Wizard", used of Gandalf, Saruman, Radagast etc. Pl. Istari is attested. Gen. pl. in the phrase Heren Istarion "Order of Wizards" (UT:388). “The istari are translated ‘wizards’ because of the connexion of ‘wizard’ with wise and so with ‘witting’ and knowing” (Letters:207); by this translation Tolkien tries to reproduce the relationship between Quenya istar and ista- #1, 2.
istima adj. "having knowledge" (IS)
Istimor pl. noun *"Wise Ones" = "Gnomes" (Noldor) (IS). Sg. #Istimo.
