Quettaparma Quenyallo

vávëa adj. “(con)similar, alike”, also ovéa (PE17:189)

vaxë noun “strain” (WA3)

váya noun ”sea” (considered as ”waters, motion”). The wording of the source indicates that Tolkien only tentatively considered such a word (PE17:33)

ve (1) prep. "as, like" (Nam, RGEO:66, Markirya, MC:213, 214, VT27:20, 27, VT49:22); in Narqelion ve may mean either "in" or "as". Ve fírimor quetir *”as mortals say” (VT49:10), ve senwa (or senya) “as usual” (VT49:10). Followed by genitive, ve apparently expresses “after the manner of”: ve quenderinwë coaron (“k”) “after the manner of bodies of Elven-kind” (PE17:174). Tolkien variously derived Quenya ve from older wē, bē or vai (VT49:10, 32, PE17:189)

ve (2) pron. “we”, 1st person pl. inclusive (corresponding to exclusive me), derived from an original stem-form we (VT49:50, PE17:130). Variant vi, q.v. Stressed wé, later vé (VT49:51). Dative (*wéna >) véna, VT49:14. Dual wet, later *vet “the two of us” (inclusive; cf. exclusive met) (VT49:51). Also compare the dative form ngwin or ngwen (q.v.), but this would apparently be *wen > *ven according to Tolkien’s later ideas.

-vë, (3) apparently an ending used to derive adverbs from adjectives (see andavë under anda and oiavë under oia). May be related to the preposition ve “as, like”.

vëa (1) adj. “seeming, apparent” (PE17:189)

vëa (2) adj. "adult, manly, vigorous" (WEG)

vëa (3) noun "sea" (MC:213, 214, 216; possibly obsoleted by #1 and #2 above, though some argue that the initial element of the late names Vëantur and Vëandur [q.v.] could be vëa #3 rather than #2 (it can hardly be #1) . In any case, the normal word for "sea" in LotR-style Quenya seems to be ëar.) Inflected vëan "sea" (MC:220), vëar "in sea" (a "Qenya" locative in -r, MC:213), vëassë "on sea" (MC:220). Cf. also vëaciryo.
