ᴹQ. li(n)an adv. “many a time, not seldom, several times, often, sometimes” (Category: Much, Many)
A correlative combination appearing as lian or linan “many a time, not seldom, several times, often, sometimes” in Demonstrative, Relative, and Correlative Stems (DRC) from 1948 (PE23/110), a combination of ᴹQ. li(n)- “several, many” and ᴹQ. -n(an) “times”.
Neo-Quenya: For purposes of Neo-Quenya I would stick to ᴹQ. lillume, since I think -n(an) was abandoned.
