Early Quenya

halkin

adjective. frozen

An adjective in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s appearing as ᴱQ. halkin “frozen” based on the early root ᴱ√HḶKḶ, a variant of ᴱ√HELE (QL/39).

Neo-Quenya: For purposes of Neo-Quenya, I think it is best to update this to the passive-participle form ᴺQ. helina “frozen” of ᴺQ. hel- “to freeze”.
