One of the various témar, or sound series, represented by the Tengwar characters. The letter-forms of this téma described the sound p and its derivatives (a series of sounds properly called labials, and including the sounds p, b, f, v and so on). Typically, the Tengwar characters used for this series were those with a closed lúva (or 'bow') curving right and downwards from the telco (or straight 'stem' of the letter). The name parmatéma literally means 'book-series', but the word 'book' is chosen here merely because it begins with a p in Elvish, reflecting the sounds described by this téma.
