A word appearing as ᴱQ. arinya “fireside” in both the Qenya Lexicon and Poetic and Mythological Words of Eldarissa of the 1910s, an adjectival form of ᴱQ. arin “hearth” (QL/32; PME/32).
Neo-Quenya: In Tolkien’s later writings, [ᴹQ.] arinya meant “morning, early” (Ety/AR¹), so I would update the Early Quenya word to ᴺQ. ruimenya “fireside, by the fire” based on the later word ruimen for “hearth” (PE17/183).
