Q. Lindarin pn. “*of the Lindar”
An adjective describing the third tribe of Elves, the Linda, as well as a name for their language (WJ/381), more comonly known as Telerin.
Conceptual Development: In linguistic notes from the 1930s, this referred to the language of the first tribe of Elves, consistent with the usage of ᴹQ. Linda in that period (LR/193; 18/26). Later the language of the first tribe was called Vanyarin.
