Q. imíca prep. “among” (Category: Between)
A word for “among” in the Aia María prayer of the 1950s, revised through the various versions of the prayer as {mil >>} mi >> {mitta >>} mika >> imíca (VT43/26-28). In the final version it was given as imíca nisi “among women”. Notes from around the same period had miki “among” as an extension of mi “in”, possible a root or primitive form (VT43/30).
Neo-Quenya: For purposes of Neo-Quenya, I reserve imíca for “among” a group of like things (among women), as opposed to imbi the plural of imbë which can be used for “among” a group of different things: máma imbi rácar “a sheep among wolves”.
