ᴺQ. !lunwa n. “fin, (lit.) swim-thing” (Category: Fish)

ᴺQ. !lunwa, n. “fin, (lit.) swim-thing” [created by Arael] (Category: Fish)

A neologism for a “fin” coined by Arael on 2023-05-30 in the Vinyë Lambengolmor Discord Server (VLDS) as a combination of √LUT “swim” and instrumental suffix ✶-mā hence literally “swim-thing”. If you apply the post-1960 sound change whereby ancient tm becomes tw rather than nw, this word would be ᴺQ. lutwa “fin”.

Elements

LUT “float”
-mā “instrumental suffix”
