Early Quenya

adverb/adjective. high; high above, high up

An adjective or adverb in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s appearing as “†high” or “high above, high up” under the early root ᴱ√TAHA (QL/87). It was mentioned again as “above” in the English-Qenya Dictionary of the 1920s, but in that document it was deleted (PE15/67).

orta

preposition. above

The Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s had ᴱQ. orta “above” under the early root ᴱ√ORO (QL/70). The English-Qenya Dictionary of the 1920s had orta “above” as an adverb, plus atta/orta as prepositions, but these were all deleted.

Neo-Quenya: Luinyelle and Arael coined a neologism ᴺQ. orsa [þ] “upper, above” as an adjective, posted to the Vinyë Lambengolmor Discord Server (VLDS) on 2022-05-23 and inspired by G. ortha and ᴺS. orth “upper”. As pointed out by Parmandil in 2024, this cannot be derived from ✱ortha since otherwise rth &gt; rt, so it must be from or(o)thā; compare ursa [þ] “rage” < ✱ur(u)tha.
