lorda
adjective. slumbrous, drowsy
The adjective ᴱQ. lorda “slumbrous, drowsy” appeared in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s under the early root ᴱ√LORO “doze, slumber” (QL/56).
Neo-Quenya: I’d retain ᴺQ. lorda for purposes of Neo-Quenya since I retain the connection between √LOR and sleep; see the entry on √(O)LOR for further discussion.
