ᴱQ. qelekte n. “carcase” (Category: Corpse, Body)
A word appearing as ᴱQ. qelekte “carcase” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s, an elaborated form of ᴱQ. qelet “corpse” (QL/76).
Neo-Quenya: Since [ᴹQ.] qelet “corpse” appears in Tolkien’s later writing, I’d retain and adapt this word as ᴺQ. quelehtë “carcase” to better fit later Quenya phonology.
