ᴱQ. lappa n. “loose-end, end of rope, hem of robe” (Category: End)

A noun appearing in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s as ᴱQ. lappa, cognate to G. laf “loose-end, end of rope, hem of robe, etc.” (GL/52). It is likely based on the early root ᴱ√LAPA “enfold” (QL/51).

Neo-Quenya: Since √LAP “fold, bend” survives in Tolkien’s later writings, I would retain this as ᴺQ. lappa “loose-end, end of rope, hem of robe”.
