Eldamo : Early Quenya : múko

ᴱQ. múko n. “dung, stercus [Latin], *manure, muck” (Category: to Void Excrement; Dung, Excrement)

A word appearing as ᴱQ. múko “dung, stercus” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s, the second gloss being Latin for “dung, manure, muck”. It was based on the early root ᴱ√MUKU “cacare”, which is Latin for “defecate” (QL/63).

Neo-Quenya: I’d retain ᴺQ. múco “dung, *manure, muck” for purposes of Neo-Quenya based on the Neo-Root ᴺ√MUK “defecate”.
