kormasta
noun. loaf
A word appearing as ᴱQ. korne “loaf” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s under the early root ᴱ√KORO “be round, roll” (QL/48), likely referring to the round or cylindrical shape of a loaf.
Neo-Quenya: Since √KOR “round” survived in Tolkien’s later writings, I would retain ᴺQ. cornë “loaf” as well.
