Hantale "Thanksgiving" (Lore Book). contrib by Feanor-(V). Eruhantale - celebration: Thanksgiving to Eru.
Hanta- root meaning "Thank" (Lore Book) contrib by Feanor-(V)
forms of You:
-cce suffix meaning "You" formal. contrib by Feanor-(V).
-lye suffix meaning "You" familiar (A; Lore Book). contrib by Feanor-(V). Covers both singular and plural
-l suffix, probably reduced form of -lye, emphatic. Hecal - You be gone! It might also be used for a plural (Lore Book)
-le suffix meaning "you" as an object (Lore Book)
Thus, hantal might be an emphatic Thank you!
