ᴹQ. ortalima adj. “able to be raised” (Category: to Lift, Raise)
An adjective appearing as [ᴹQ.] ortalima “able to be raised” in the Quenya Verbal System (QVS) from 1948, based on the verb orta- “raise” (PE22/111). In that document, -(a)lima was used for the suffix “-able” within the class of weak or derived verbs.
Neo-Quenya: The variant -alima appears nowhere other than QVS, and in Tolkien’s later writings he used -ima “-able” for all classes of verbs (PE22/156). As such, I would update this word to ᴺQ. ortaima for purposes of Neo-Quenya.
