turya-

verb. strengthen

turya-

verb. *to strengthen, [ᴹQ.] to strengthen

A verb for “strengthen” in the Quenya Verbal System (QVS) from 1948, the basis for the noun [ᴹQ.] turyande “strengthening” (PE22/110). It also appears in notes from 1957 within the (loosely translated) phrase Eldaron indor turyaner “the hearts of the Eldar were comforted / or obeyed” (NM/239), perhaps more literally “✱the hearts of the Eldar [were] strengthened”. If so, it seems this verb can be used intransitively for “to become strengthened, strengthen oneself”, but I think it can also be used transitively as in nár turya tinco “fire strengthens metal”. It also seems this verb can be used for metaphorical as well as physical strength.

verb. to strengthen

A neologism for “to strengthen” coined by Helge Fauskanger for his NQNT (NQNT) based on Q. antoryamë “strengthening”. After its invention, the attested verb turya- “to strengthen” was published (PE22/110), so I’d use that rather than this neologism, as Fauskanger himself did in other parts of NQNT.
