Early Quenya

welba

adjective. boiling, bubbling

An adjective appearing as ᴱQ. ’welba “boiling, bubbling” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s under the early root {ᴱ√WELE >>} ᴱ√GWELE (QL/103).

Neo-Quenya: For purpose of Neo-Quenya, I would adapt this word as ᴺQ. velva with the usual sound change initial w to v. Both lb and lv appear in Quenya, but lv is the more common pronunciation (PE17/129).
