used = riches), larma (the latter possibly "pigfat";<br />
the first part of the gloss is not certainly<br />
legible in Tolkien's manuscript. Another gloss of<br />
larma is "flesh"; in a later source a similar word<br />
is used for “raiment”.) <strong>–</strong>TIW, VT45:26<br />
FATE umbar (umbart-) (doom; the form<br />
amarto in LT2:348 could be obsolete, but ambar<br />
from the same source may be a valid word also<br />
in LotR-style <strong>Quenya</strong> <strong>–</strong> see DOOM), marto<br />
(fortune, lot); manar, mandë (doom, final end,<br />
fortune [usually = final bliss]); FATED marta<br />
(which adjective also seems to be the noun<br />
"fate" in later sources; see VT45:33, VT46:13).<br />

FATHER atar (pl. atari in Etym, though<br />
the pl. form #atári occurs as part of the<br />
compound Atanatári). Dative ataren is attested<br />
(VT43:36-37). Forms like atar, atarinya ("my<br />
father") as well as atya "daddy" are said to be<br />
forms a child would use in addressing his or her<br />
father (VT47:26; see DADDY). In VT48:19, atya<br />
is explained as a contraction of at-nya "my<br />
father". The final version of the Lord's Prayer<br />
(VT43:12, 13) has #Átar with a long initial vowel<br />
(Átaremma "our father"); this #Átar may<br />
incorporate the vocative particle a (*a Atar "o<br />
Father" > #Átar). FATHER OF ALL Ilúvatar<br />
(God). <strong>–</strong>Silm:428, 229/ATA/LT1:255, VT44:16,<br />

LotR:1144<br />
FEEL: The noun felmë "emotion" (q.v.) or<br />
*"feeling" may suggest a verbal stem #fel-<br />
(compare melmë vs. mel-, "love" as noun and<br />
verb). This #fel- could then mean "to feel" in the<br />
general sense of "have an emotion". Other<br />
senses, see below.<br />

FIERY uruitë, úruva (The stem from<br />
which these words are derived was struck out in<br />
Etym. However, several words that must be<br />
derived from this stem occur in LotR, indicating<br />
that Tolkien restored it. LT1:248 also gives sára<br />
"fiery", but this word is probably obsoleted by<br />
sára "bitter" in Etym.) <strong>–</strong>UR<br />
FIFTEEN lepenquë <strong>–</strong>VT48:21 (the form<br />
quailepen seems to be another, possibly<br />
experimental, word for "15" in <strong>Quenya</strong>). For the<br />
