Deer, in J.R.R. Tolkien's words

I didn't find a Quenya word for deer in the main dictionaries that I use, although other resources mentioned the word arassë as the Quenya word for deer. The Quenya website Lambë Eldaiva The Language of the Elves says that this word was reconstructed from Sindarin.

The Sindarin word for deer is aras.
