ᴱQ. qosta- v. “to choke, drown (trans.)” (Category: to Breathe; Breath)

A verb appearing as ᴱQ. qosta- “choke, drown (tr.)” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s based on the early root ᴱ√QOŘO [QOÐO] or ᴱ√QOSO (QL/78).

Neo-Quenya: I would retain this word as ᴺQ. quosta- “to choke, drown (trans.)” for purposes of Neo-Quenya as a derivative of *kwod-tā based on the Neo-Root ᴺ√KWOD, but some Neo-Quenya writers reject this word under the assumption that the combination quo- is not possible in Quenya; see the entry on how [wo] became [o] for further discussion.
