nelli
From Tolkien Gateway
*nelli or perhaps *nelloi or *neldi is a Telerin word perhaps meaning "singers".
The word is seen in the Fallinelli and Soloneldi (which may actually be a Quenya-Telerin hybrid)
The independent word "singer" is probably *nello.
Etymology[edit | edit source]
It comes from a possible Primitive Elvish *nyeldo Root NYEL.
