- sokta- ✧ QL/085 (
sokta-)
A verb appearing as ᴱQ. {sokta-} >> sokto- “give to drink, drench” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s under the early root ᴱ√SOKO with derivatives having to do with “drink” (QL/85).
Neo-Quenya: Since √SOK reappears in Tolkien’s later writing (PE18/94), I think this word can be adapted as ᴺQ. sohta- for purposes of Neo-Quenya.
