ᴱQ. tambin (tambind-) n. “cauldron” (Category: Pot)
A noun appearing as ᴱQ. tambin (tambind-) in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s somewhat cryptically glossed “a copper or cauldron”, derived from the early root ᴱ√TAMA “beat; smelt, forge” (QL/88). It also appeared in the Poetic and Mythological Words of Eldarissa of the same period, with the more straightforward gloss “cauldron” (PME/88).
Neo-Quenya: The root √TAM appeared in Tolkien’s later writing in connection to craft words, so I would retain this word as ᴺQ. tambin “cauldron” for purposes of Neo-Quenya.
