valatúru

masculine name. Lord of the Valar

Title of Manwë as Lord of the Valar in the earliest Lost Tales (LT1/180), a combination of ᴱQ. Vala and some form of the root ᴱ√TURU “be strong”.

Conceptual Development: In a marginal note, there was a variant form Valahíru, with its second element derived from the root ᴱ√HERE “rule”, as suggested by Christopher Tolkien (LT1A/Valahíru).

palúrien

turwa

adjective. powerful

An adjective for “powerful” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s under the early root ᴱ√TURU “am strong” (QL/96).

Neo-Quenya: Since √TUR remains connected to power in Tolkien’s later writings, I’d retain this word for purposes of Neo-Quenya, but I’d use it for general or abstract forms of potency, as opposed to being physically powerful (turca or [ᴹQ.] poldórea) or politically powerful (túrëa). For example: turwa nus “a powerful smell” or turwa vangwe “a powerful storm”.
