paitya-
verb. to repay, requite
A verb appearing as ᴱQ. paitya- “repay, requite” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s under the early root ᴱ√PAẎA “requite, punish, take vengeance on, conquer, subdue” (QL/72).
Neo-Quenya: I retain ᴺ√PAY for purposes of Neo-Quenya to serve as the basis for various “vengeance” words, so I would keep ᴺQ. paitya- “to repay, requite” as well, derived from ✱PAYAT-yā.
