palasya-

verb. to splash, foam

An intransative verb in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s given as ᴱQ. palasya- “splash, foam”, a derivative of the root ᴱ√Palas (QL/72). Its past form palastine is a pattern seen in other ya-verbs like ᴱQ. niqisya-, past niqistine and ᴱQ. turya-, past tustine.

Neo-Quenya: In his Neo-Quenya New Testament (NQNT), Helge Fausganger adapted this verb as ᴺQ. palasta- “to splash, sprinkle” based on its past tense. I feel it is preferable to salvage this early verb as ᴺQ. falarya- “to splash” with the usual later sound change of sy > ry, and an update of the root to later √PHAL(AS).

poimine

noun. lather, foam; mermaid

A noun appearing as ᴱQ. poimine “lather” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s, an elaboration of ᴱQ. poime “soap” (QL/75). In the Poetic and Mythological Words of Eldarissa it was glossed “lather, foam; a mermaid” (PME/75).

Neo-Quenya: For purposes of Neo-Quenya I’d update this word to ᴺQ. lipsanë, an elaboration of the later word ᴹQ. lipsa for “soap”.

palaswin

noun. wave-crest

A word for “wave-crest” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s, derived from ᴱ√Palas (QL/72). It has a stem form palaswing-, so was perhaps ᴱ√Palas + ᴱQ. winge “foam”.

ailin

In the version of the Markirya poem from the 1960s, this word became Q. hresta (MC/221-222), whereas Q. ailin itself usually meant “lake” in later writings.
