For clarification, the information in my post above was drawn from the article 'Negation in Quenya' by Bill Welden, published in VT 42. It cites an unpublished vocabulary list by JRRT from ca. 1960 with the following quote:
"Q. lá 'yes'"
...and it also cites an unpublished essay from ca. 1970 with the following quote:
"Q. lá 'no'".
