⚠️ᴺQ. !eruyána, n. “building for the worship of Eru (church, synagogue, mosque)” [created by Luinyelle] (Category: Temple)
Q. ainas “hallow, fane, *shrine, holy place, sanctuary”
ᴺQ. !hristomar “church (building), Lord’s house”

A neologism for a “building for the worship of Eru” coined by Luinyelle posted on 2025-05-25 in the Vinyë Lambengolmor Discord Server (VLDS), a combination of Eru and yána “holy place”. I personally wouldn’t use this word since Tolkien said that the Elves and Men of Middle Earth did not worship Eru directly.
