"Qenya", the word was defined as "island, any rise<br />

standing alone in water, plain of green, etc"<br />

SD:246; read perhaps *tullë in mature <strong>Quenya</strong>. Cf.<br />

early "Qenya" perfects tulielto "they have come"<br />

(LT1:114, 270) and tulier "have come", pl., in the<br />

phrase I·Eldar tulier "the Eldar have<br />
