ᴱQ. limna n. “sheaf” (Category: to Gather, Collect)

A noun appearing as ᴱQ. limna “sheaf” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s under the early root ᴱ√LIMI (QL/54).

Neo-Sindarin: Since √LIM “link, join” survived in Tolkien’s later writings, I would retain ᴺQ. limna “sheaf” for purposes of Neo-Quenya, as a bundle of grains joined together.
