Early Quenya

lehta-

verb. to ride, move (tr.)

This verb first appeared in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s in its root form ᴱ√LEHE “come, be sent, approach”, with a past tense lenge (QL/52). At this point its Qenya stem form is probably something like ᴱQ. ✱lé-, since “h ... between vowels > ɣ > vanished” in the early Qenya of the 1910s (PE12/18). The English-Qenya Dictionary of the 1920s had a similar verb ᴱQ. lehe- or ᴱQ. lehta- “ride”. See the entries for √LEN and √LED for later iterations of these roots.
