ᴱQ. yéma n. “face” (Category: Face)

⚠️ᴱQ. yéma, n. “face” (Category: Face)
Q. cendelë “face, *visage”

A word for “face” appearing in Early Qenya Word-lists from the 1920s (PE16/136) along with a list of body parts from the same period (PE14/117). It is likely derived from the early root ᴱ√DYĒ¹ whose derivatives have to do with “gaze” or “look at” (QL/105), as suggested by Patrick Wynne (VT49/21).
