ᴺQ. !corpë n. “skull” (Category: Skull)
Helge Fauskanger proposed the neologism ᴺQ. caraxo “skull = head bone” for his Neo-Quenya New Testament (NQNT), but Damien Bador instead used ᴺQ. coropë < √KOR “round”, adapted from Gnomish G. corob “skull”. I prefer Bador’s solution, with the caveat that I think it would likely undergo the Quenya syncope and become ᴺQ. corpë instead, as pointed out by Röandil in a Discord chat from 2021-06-08.
