ᴱQ. leminkaiya num. ord. “fifteenth” (Category: Ordinal Number)

⚠️ᴱQ. lemincaiya, num. ord. “fifteenth” (Category: Ordinal Number)
ᴺQ. !lepenquëa “fifteenth”

The Early Qenya Grammar (EQG) of the 1920s had ᴱQ. leminkaiya “fifteenth” as a combination of ᴱQ. lemin “five” and ᴱQ. kaiya “tenth” (PE14/82).

Neo-Quenya: For purposes of Neo-Quenya, I would update this word to ᴺQ. lepenquëa “fifteenth” as an adjectival form of lepenquë “fifteen”.
