ᴺQ. !hatwa n. “medicine, medication, drug” (Category: Medicine, Drug)
A neologism for “medicine” originally coined as haswa [haþwa] by Tamas Ferencz derived from √HATH + ✶-mā = “cure-thing”. Luinyelle noted that this word should be hatwa since thm became tw in (Ancient) Quenya. She further suggested that this word could mean “medicine = medication, drug”, as opposed to hasarë = “medicine (as a practice)”.
