ᴱQ. silta n. “sieve” (Category: to Separate)
A noun appearing as ᴱQ. silta “sieve” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s based on the early root ᴱ√SḶTḶ (QL/84). In very light pencil Tolkien add (ṇ) after it, perhaps considering a change in the root.
Neo-Sindarin: I would retain this noun as ᴺQ. silta “sieve” based on a neo-root ᴺ√SILIT.
