DIRECT TOWARD (or “be directed
toward”) tenta, pa.t. tentanë (perhaps in the
sense “directed toward”, transitive, attested in
the phrase tentanë numenna “pointed
westward”), also tenantë (perhaps in the sense
“was directed toward”, intransitive). Used
transitively, the verb can also mean “go forth
towards” (with the thing approached as direct
object). –VT49:23

road); DESIRE TO GO IN SOME DIRECTION

but this would seem to be a verb, and
presumably Quenya). –VT48:11

perya-, a word perina is mentioned; it is
undefined but must be the corresponding past
participle: *"divided in middle, halved".) –PER

Valar", probably not to be used with reference to
the One who is above them), Eruva (adj.
referring to the divinity of Eru himself), DIVINITY

other equal parts; asta is often used = "month"

various attested forms of this verb); NOT DO
#um- (cited in the form umin "I do not", 1st pers.
aorist; also short uin) (pa.t. úmë, not to be
confused with a noun meaning "collection,
crowd"). This verb is also used = "not be", see
BE concerning this and other verbs for “not do,
not be”. DO NOT! (imperative) vá! (also = I will
not); DON'T áva, avá, alalyë (the last form
incorporates the ending -lyë "thou", hence "do
not thou [do something]"). DON'T DO IT! áva
carë! SET VIGOROUSLY OUT TO DO horya-
(be compelled to do something, have an
impulse) DO BACK ahtar- or accar- (react;
requite, avenge) –KAR, UGU/UMU, WJ:371,

DOOM manar, mandë (final end, fate,
fortune, final bliss); umbar- (umbart-) (fate). See
below concerning *anan in Rithil-Anamo. In the
story of Túrin Turambar, it seems that ambar
means "doom": Turambar is said to mean
"Master of Doom", and Nienor even uses the
word in the instrumental case: ambartanen "by
doom". Similarly, LT2:348 gives ambar "Fate".
But in Etym, ambar means "earth", and LotR
Appendix E confirms that "fate" is umbar.
DOOM RING Máhanaxar (a foreign word in
Quenya, adopted and adapted from Valarin, also
translated as:) Rithil-Anamo "Ring of Doom",
name of the place where judgement was passed
in Valinor (hence Anamo as genitive "of Doom",
nominative probably *anan with stem anam-,
otherwise but less likely *anama – this seems to
be "doom" in the sense of judgement or juridical
justice, since the root is NAM as in nam- "to
judge"). –MAN/MANAD, MBARAT/VT45:5,
Silm:261, 269, LotR:1157, WJ:399, WJ:401
DOOR, see GATE; *DOOR OF NIGHT:
the translation Ando Lómen is given in VT45:28
(citing a deleted entry in the Etymologies). Since
Tolkien later decided that the genitive ending
should be -o rather than -n, and moreover
equipped lómë "night" with the stem-form lómi-,
we should perhaps read *Ando Lómio.
DORIATH #Lestanórë (only gen.
Lestanórëo is attested) –WJ:369
DORLÓMIN Lóminórë –WJ:145
DOT pica (small spot), tixë (tiny mark,
point), amatixë (point over the line of writing;
variant amatexë in VT46:19), unutixë (point
under the line of writing; the initial element unu-
was misread as "nun-" in the Etymologies as
printed in LR, see VT46:19) –PIK, TIK/VT46:19
