ᴹQ. liruste n. “singing, chant” (Category: to Sing)

A noun for “singing, chant” appearing in the Quenya Verbal System (QVS) from 1948 as a combination of the verb kelu- “flow” and the “general action suffix” -ste (PE22/110). It probably refers to a single act of singing, as opposed to singing as a common activity which would be the (gerund) liruye “singing” (PE22/117).

Neo-Quenya: In Common Eldarin: Verb Structure (EVS2), this suffix became -sta (PE22/137 and note #40), so I would adapt this noun as ᴺQ. lirusta “outflow” for purposes of Neo-Quenya.
