Beware, older languages below! The languages below were invented during Tolkien's earlier period and should be used with caution. Remember to never, ever mix words from different languages!

Early Quenya

panna

noun. arrangement, grouping; book

A noun appearing as ᴱQ. panna in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s and the equivalent of G. pant “arrangement, grouping; book” (GL/63). It is clearly based on the early root ᴱ√PANA “arrange” (QL/72).

Neo-Quenya: Since √PAN still means “arrange” in Tolkien’s later writings, I would retain ᴺQ. panna “arrangement, grouping” for purposes of Neo-Quenya, but for “book” I would use the later word parma.
