Beware, older languages below! The languages below were invented during Tolkien's earlier period and should be used with caution. Remember to never, ever mix words from different languages!

Early Quenya

yausta

noun. crop

A word appearing as ᴱQ. yausta “crop” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s under the early root ᴱ√ẎAVA having to do with fruit (QL/105).

Neo-Quenya: Since ᴹ√YAB “fruit” survived in Tolkien’s later writings, I think ᴺQ. yausta “crop” can be retained for purposes of Neo-Quenya.

Cognates

  • G. gaust “corn, crop (espec. of cereal)”
