A word for “long-arm(ed)” in the manuscript version of Early Qenya Grammar of the 1920s (PE14/45), changed to “long-wing” in the typescript version (PE14/75). The word appeared with the glosses “long-wing” (PE15/74) or “longwinged” (PE15/79) in the contemporaneous English-Qenya Dictionary. It was a combination of ᴱQ. anda “long” and ᴱQ. ráma which was usually glossed “wing”, but in one place in the 1920s was glossed “arm, wing” (PE16/137).
