kwí, kwíta, particle indicating uncertainty (evidently like English "maybe, perhaps"). We would expect the spelling quí, quíta (VT42:34). See (which form is perhaps to be preferred)

kyermë noun *"prayer", isolated from Erukyermë (UT:166)

-l or -lyë (VT49:48, 51), pronominal endings for 2nd person sg. polite/formal “you, thou”: caril or carilyë *“you do” (VT49:16), hamil “you judge” (VT42:33), anel “you were” (see #1); see -lyë for further examples. These endings may also be added to pronouns (etel/etelyë or mil, milyë; see et, mi). In one source, -l is rather used as a reduced affix denoting plural “you”; see heca! (WJ:364)



la negation "no, not" (see ); also prefix la- as in lacarë, q.v. (VT45:25)

(1) adv. “no, not" (LA, VT45:25) According to VT42:33, is the stressed form, alternating with la when the negation is unstressed. – In another conceptual phase of Tolkien's, had the opposite meaning "yes" (VT42:32-33), but this idea is contradicted by both earlier and later material: usually is conceived as a negation. – The negation can receive tense markers and be used as a negative verb “when [another] verb is not expressed” (VT49:13), apparently where the phrase “is not” is followed by a noun or an adjective as a predicate, or where some verb is understood, as in English “I do not” (i.e. “I do not do whatever the context indicates”). With pronominal endings la- in the aorist, e.g. lanyë “I do not, am not” (etc.) (Tolkien abandoned the form lamin.) Exemplified in the sentence melin sé apa lanyë *“I love him but I do not [love] him” (another person) (VT49:15). Present tense laia, past lánë, perfect alaië, future lauva.

(2) prep. “athwart, over, across, beyond” (PE17:65), also used in phrases of comparison, e.g. "A ná calima lá B", A is bright beyond (= brighter than) B (VT42:32).

[ (3) interjection? "please" (reading of gloss uncertain) (VT45:25)]



lacarë ("k") noun "not-doing, inaction" (in general) (VT42:33)
