Helge Fauskanger has suggested that the form aicassë (retaining its meaning, and perhaps also include the meaning of Qenya aikasse, see below) could be valid Neo-Quenya.[2]

Notes
- ↑ The editor's note for aigos in Parma Eldalamberon XI (third impression May 2004) says that aikasse is the "Quenya form". However, all other entries refer to Qenya.
