A neologism coined by Paul Strack in 2018 specifically for Eldamo, inspired by Q. néya “once, at one time”. I would also used nî/nîr as the past form “was/were” of the verb na- “to be” for statements about the past: Boromir nî orchal “Borormir was tall”, i rych nîr lim “the horses were swift”. Compare tho- “will be”. See the entry on na- for further discussion.

A (very hypothetical) past form of na- “is”; see that entry for discussion.
