ᴹQ. qáme “sickness”

ᴱQ. qámea adj. “sick” (Category: Sick; Sickness)

A word appearing as qāmea “sick” in Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s, an adjective form of ᴱQ. qáme “sickness, nausea” (QL/76).

Neo-Quenya: Since ᴹQ. qáme “sickness” appears in Tolkien’s later writings (Ety/KWAM), I would retain ᴺQ. quámëa for purposes of Neo-Quenya, but given the meaning of its noun form I would assume its primary meaning is “*nauseous”, as opposed to generally sick which would be [ᴺQ.] hlaiwa.
