An adjective for “manly” based on √NER “man” in notes written in the late 1940s (PE23/87).
Conceptual Development: The Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s had ᴱQ. nerevoite “manly”, an adjectival form of ᴱQ. ner “man” (QL/65). This word reappeared in Early Qenya Word-lists of the 1920s with the gloss male and a variant form neríte (PE16/135). The form neríte reappeared as an adjectival form of nēr in a set of Qenya Declensions from the 1920s (PE13/113). The 1940s notes mentioned above also had ᴹQ. yonda “manly, masculine” < √YON, but this was deleted and presumably replaced by neríte (PE23/87 note #82).
