tec- vb. "write" (Etym gives the form tecë "writes", evidently the 3rd person aorist) (TEK)

tecco ("k") noun "stroke of pen or brush (´) when not used as long mark" (TEK)

tecil ("k") noun "pen" (TEK, PM:318, VT47:8)

tehta noun "mark, sign" (TEK, VT39:17, Appendix E), especially diacritics denoting vowels in Fëanorian writing (pl. tehtar is attested); these diacritics are explicitly called ómatehtar "vowel-marks", q.v.

*tehtelë noun “scriptures, documents” (updated from “Qenya” tektele) (QL:90)

tel noun "roof" (LT1:268). Rather tópa in Tolkien’s later Quenya.

telar noun "brick" (PE13:153, PE16:138)

telco noun "stem" of a Tengwa symbol (Appendix E). The Etymologies gives telco ("k") pl. telqui ("q") "leg" (the pl. form is said to be analogical) (TÉLEK). It seems, then, that the word can refer to a "stem" or "leg" in general as well as the stem of a Tengwa. In the pre-classical Tengwar system presupposed in the Etymologies, telco is used to refer to a carrier symbol (VT46:18, 33)

Telcontar masc. name "Strider" (MR:216). This word may suggest a verb *telconta- "to stride".
