Early Quenya

qapa-

verb. to chaffer, bargain, swap, barter

A verb appearing as ᴱQ. qapa- “chaffer, bargain, swap, barter” in the Qenya Lexicon under the early root ᴱ√QAPA “chaffer” [= haggle] (QL/76).

Neo-Quenya: I would retain ᴺQ. quap- “chaffer, bargain, swap, barter” for purposes of Neo-Quenya derived from a Neo-Root ᴺS. √KWAP, since we otherwise have very few words having to do with commerce.
