ᴺQ. !löasta, n. “season, (lit.) year-part” [created by Paul Strack] (Category: Season)

A neologism for “season” coined by Paul Strack in 2022 specifically for Eldamo, a combination of Q. löa “year” and Q. -sta “part”. Sami Paldanius instead suggested ᴺQ. löacasta “season” = “year-quarter” in the 1000 Words project (1000W), put I prefer löasta since it can also be applied to the Elvish six-season year.

Elements
