Hello,

> So where did the Quenya |mirroanwi| come from?
It's a plural of #_Mirroanwe_ < _mi-srâwâ-n-wê_, lit. 'in-fleshed', 'one
[whose _fëa_ is] put into flesh'.

> Did |*kwene| and
> |*kwende| merge, so they needed a new word?
No, it's just on a quite different metaphysical plane :-)

(the derivatives of *_kwene_ and *_kwende_ were distinct in Quenya)
