vinta-
verb. to scatter, blow about
A verb appearing as winta “scatter, blow about” in notes from the late 1960s, which Tolkien specified as both transitive and intransitive (PM/376). Tolkien said it was related to Q. winge “foam” and hence was derived from either ᴹ√WIG or (more likely) a variant ✱√WIÑ.
Neo-Quenya: For purposes of Neo-Quenya I represent this word as vinta- in keeping with its modern pronunciation; see the entry on the consonant [w] for discussion. Given that it could be used intransitively as well as transitively, I think this would be a formative verb derived from primitive ✱wiñ-t(ă), probably with distinct intransitive and transitive pasts: vinintë and vintanë.
