umalde
adverb. somehow, *in some way
The correlative ᴹQ. umalde “somehow” appeared in Demonstrative, Relative, and Correlative Stems (DRC) from 1948 (PE23/111), a combination of ᴹQ. uma- “some” and ᴹQ. -l(de) “way”, so more literally “✱in some way”.
Neo-Quenya: For purposes of Neo-Quenya I would update this to ᴺQ. umallë “somehow, in some way” using the later suffix Q. -llë.
