pirë noun “toe”, dual piru (PE16:96). Compare taltil.

poita- vb. "cleanse", pa.t. poinë (QL:75, VT48:13)

pol- (1) vb. "can" = have physical power and ability, as in polin quetë "I can speak (because mouth and tongue are free)". Cf. ista-, lerta- as verbs "can" with somewhat different shades of meaning. (VT41:6, PE17:181)

pol (2) adj. “large, big (strong)”. Since this would be the sole example of a monosyllabic Quenya adjective, it may be that Tolkien is here citing the root POL rather than a complete word. Cf. polda.

polca ("k") noun "pig" (QL:75)

polda adj. “big” (PE17:115), "strong, burly" (POL/POLOD)

poldorë noun? (not glossed, derived from polda "strong, burly": possibly "strength" as an abstract) (POL/POLOD)

Poldor, Poldomo noun “breaker up of the hard / tough”, Poldor- “land-breaker?”, variant forms of Poldórëa, q.v., introduced at a time when Tolkien did not want the root POL to refer to strength or mightiness (PE17:181), cf. polda from an earlier source.

Poldórëa adj. "Valiant"; as title of Tulkas replaced by Astaldo (POL/POLOD, MR:146, 149. In GL:64, poldórëa is glossed "mighty", in QL:75, "muscular".)

[polë (stem poli-) noun ”meal, grist” (PE17:115, 181), a word Tolkien decided to replace by mulë; perhaps polë was a variant of porë.]

pono, see po, pó

póna adv. “forward” (VT49:12), also ompa

pontë (ponti-) noun "back, rear" (QL:75)

porë (stem *pori-, given the primitive form ¤pori) noun "flour, meal" (POR). See polë.

porocë ("k") noun “hen; barn fowl” (PE16:132)

pota-, see po, pó

potai adv. “therefore”. Tolkien seems uncertain whether to use this form or etta (VT49:12). Cf. also epetai.

puhta noun "coitus" (PE13:163, gloss specified to refer to "one act"; a more general word for "sex" could perhaps be derived by adding an abstract or generalizing ending like -lë)

punta noun "stopped consonant" (PUT, see PUS; according to VT46:33, this does not refer to a "stop" or plosive consonant, but to a letter with a subscript dot indicating that it is not followed by a vowel. Compare putta.)

púrëa adj. "smeared, discoloured" (Markirya)

pusta (1) noun "stop", in punctuation full stop (PUS). Compare putta.
