Quenya Paired Transitives

This is a full alphabetical index of all the 16 transitive Quenya verbs in the currently loaded dictionary that are marked as paired with another verb, its intransitive counterpart.

In Quenya, these pairs of verbs are fairly common. Often, the transitive will be a so-called ta/ya-causative with a weak past tense, and the intransitive will be a ta/ya-formative with the same stem but a strong past tense; however, there are many exceptions to this rule.
