ᴹQ. yúla, n. “ember, smouldering wood” (Category: Match, Fire Stick): ᴺQ. !yúla “neither, nor”

A noun for {“ember, smouldering brand” >>} “ember, smouldering wood” based on the root ᴹ√YUL “smoulder” in The Etymologies of the 1930s (Ety/YUL; EtyAC/YUL). The later meaning of the root √YUL was “drink” (PE17/63).

Neo-Quenya: For purposes of Neo-Eldarin, I would adapt the root ᴹ√YUL “smoulder” as the Neo-Root ᴺ√YOL/YUL with vowel variations similar to √SOK/SUK and as such would salvage this word for the purposes of Neo-Quenya; see the entry on ᴺ√YOL/YUL for further discussion.
