ᴱ√TIPI root. “*spray”

⚠️ᴱ√TIPI root. “*spray”: √ROS “spindrift, spray; [ᴹ√] distil, drip”

An unglossed root in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s described as a dialectical variant of ᴱ√TIQI with derivatives like ᴱQ. timpa “a spray, nozzle of hose” and ᴱQ. timpina “fine, powdered, sprayed” (QL/92). The word G. tibli “drizzle, sleet” is related (GL/70). There are no signs of this root in Tolkien’s later writing.
