ᴱQ. rinqa adj. “round, circular; revolving, returning, recurrent” (Category: to Turn Around)

An adjective appearing as ᴱQ. rinqa in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s glossed “round, circular; revolving, returning, recurrent” and based on the early root ᴱ√RINI having to do with circles (QL/80).

Neo-Quenya:For purposes of Neo-Quenya I would use the later word ᴹQ. rinda for “circular”, but I would retain ᴺQ. rinqua for the meanings “revolving, returning, recurrent”, originally of the sense “*moving in a circle”.
