ᴹQ. hrim- pref. “a great number, host, (very) many” (Category: Much, Many)
A Quenya prefix for “a great number, host, very many” appearing in Demonstrative, Relative, and Correlative Stems (DRC) from 1948 (PE23/100). In this document it was initially derived from the root ᴹ√SRĬMĬ which was revised to ᴹ√RĬMĬ (PE23/100 note #34), but this change was not reflected in other words from this document.
Neo-Quenya: For purposes of Neo-Quenya, I would assume the prefix for “(very) many” is ᴺQ. rim-, since that is more consistent with derivations of the root both before and after 1948.
