ᴱQ. kanu n. “lead” (Category: Lead)

A word appearing as ᴱQ. kanu “lead” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s under the early root ᴱ√KANA (QL/44). It was also identified as the source of the k in the name of the magical metal ᴱQ. Tilkal (LT1/100).

Neo-Quenya: I retain ᴺQ. canu “lead [metal]” for purposes of Neo-Quenya as there are no better alternatives in Tolkien’s later writings.
