Early Quenya

saipo

noun. boot

A noun appearing as ᴱQ. saipo “boot” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s based on the early root ᴱ√SAYAPA (QL/82). This word also appeared contemporaneous Qenya Phonology where it was derived from ᴱ√saẏap- (PE12/26).

Neo-Quenya: I would retain this word as ᴺQ. saipo “boot” for purposes of Neo-Quenya as a derivative of a Neo-Root ᴺ√S(A)YAP; see ᴹ√SKYAP for a discussion of this Neo-Root.
