aiqua

steep

aiqua("q")adj. "steep" (AYAK). Not to be confused with the pronoun *aiqua "if anything, whatever" that post-Tolkien writers have extrapolated from aiquen (q.v.) on the basis of such pairs as ilquen vs. ilqua (q.v.)

aiqua

pronoun. anything, whatever

aima

pronoun. anything, whatever

A neologism coined by Röandil for “anything, whatever” as a combination of ᴺQ. ai(a)- “any” and Q. ma “thing”, the impersonal equivalent of aiquen “(if) anybody, whoever”. In his NQNT (NQNT) Helge Fauskanger used ᴺQ. aiqua “anything, whatever” inspired by ᴹQ. ilqa “everying” based on the 1930s sense of the root ᴹ√KWA “something”, but in Tolkien’s later writings √KWA usually means “complete, full”, so I think aima is preferable.
