(Appendix D), but translated "the first day of Spring"<br />

in the Silmarillion Appendix (SA:cuivië). Early<br />

"Qenya" has coirë ("k") "life" (LT1:257; in later<br />

<strong>Quenya</strong>, the word for "life" is cuilë; however, cf. the<br />

adj. coirëa "living" occurring both in an early and a<br />

late source).<br />

eriocóN Nócoirë alternative name of March<br />

(PM:135)<br />

eriocrE Ercoirë alternative name of<br />

February (PM:135)<br />

erion #noirë "tomb", isolated from<br />

Noirinan, q.v.<br />

erís sírë "river" (SIR), "stream" (LT1:265)<br />

eró órë (1) "heart" (inner mind), also name<br />

of tengwa 21. (Appendix E) Cf. the description of<br />

Galadriel in PM:337, that "there dwelt in her the<br />

noble and generous spirit (órë) of the Vanyar".<br />

eró órë (2) "rising" (ORO), cf. early<br />

"Qenya" órë "the dawn, Sunrise, East" (LT1:264)<br />

erodlop poldorë (not glossed, derived from<br />

polda "strong, burly") (POL/POLOD)<br />

eródnA Andórë full form of Andor, "land of<br />

gift", name of Númenor (SD:247)<br />

eróh hórë "impulse" (KHOR), hórëa<br />

"impulsion" (KHOR) (should probably mean<br />

*"impulsive" instead - Christopher Tolkien may have<br />

misread the gloss)<br />

eról lórë "slumber" (LOS)<br />

erom morë "black" (MOR), "dark, darkness"<br />

(Letters:282)<br />

eróm mórë "blackness, dark, night,<br />

darkness" (MOR, MC:214), also given with short<br />

vowel: morë "dark, darkness" (Letters:282)<br />

erón nórë "land" (associated with a<br />

particular people) (WJ:413), "country, land, dwellingplace,<br />

region where certain people live, race, clan"<br />

(NÔ, NDOR, BAL), also used = "people" (SA:dôr;<br />

however, the normal word for "people" is lië). Early<br />

"Qenya" has nórë "native land, nation, family,<br />

country" (in compounds -nor) (LT1:272)<br />

erónanrA Arnanórë, Arnanor "Arnor",<br />

Royal Land (so #arna = "royal"?) (Letters:428)<br />

erónatseL Lestanórë "Doriath", gen.<br />

Lestanórëo (WJ:369)<br />

eróno onórë "sister" (of blood-kin)<br />

(THEL/THELES, NÔ; both of these entries in the<br />

Etymologies as reproduced in LR have the reading<br />

"onóne", but the "Old Noldorin" cognate wanûre<br />

listed in the entry THEL/THELES seems to indicate<br />

that the <strong>Quenya</strong> word should be onórë; the letters n<br />

and r are easily confused in Tolkien's handwriting.<br />

There is no clear evidence for a feminine ending -në<br />

in <strong>Quenya</strong>, while -rë is relatively well attested; cf. for<br />

instance ontarë = female parent, mother.)<br />

erónemúN Númen(n)órë "people of the<br />

west", confused with Númendor "land of the west"<br />

33<br />

(SA:dôr); hence Númenor as the name of the great<br />

isle given to the Edain by the Valar (FS, LR:56); full<br />

form Númenórë (LR:47, SD:247, NDÛ); allative<br />

númenórenna "to Númenor" (LR:56)<br />

eronewiA Aiwenorë (read *Aiwenórë?),<br />

Aiwenor "Birdland" = lower air (AIWÊ)<br />

erónilaV Valinórë (BAL, NDOR), usually<br />

shortened Valinor, "the land (or people) of the<br />

Valar", *"Vali-land" (Vali = Valar), land of the Gods<br />

in the West (BAL, NDOR); cf. Valandor. In the early<br />

"Qenya Lexicon", Valinor, Valinórë is glossed<br />

"Asgard", the name of the city of the gods in Norse<br />

mythology (LT1:272). Possessive (here object<br />

genitive) Valinóreva in Nurtalë Valinóreva, the<br />

"Hiding of Valinor" (Silm).<br />

erop porë "flour, meal" (POL/POLOD)<br />

erórana anarórë "sunrise" (ORO)<br />

erouH Huorë "Heart-vigour" (masc. name)<br />

(KHÔ-N)<br />

eróvurim miruvórë "meed", "a special wine<br />

or cordial". Also short miruvor. Possessive<br />

miruvóreva "of meed" (Nam, RGEO:66; WJ:399) In<br />

the "Qenya Lexicon", miruvórë was defined "nectar,<br />

drink of the Valar" (LT1:261).<br />

erú úrë "heat", also name of tengwa 36<br />

(Appendix E)<br />

erua aurë "sunlight, day" (SA:ur), locative<br />

auressë "in (the) morning" in Markirya<br />

eruac caurë ("k") "fear" (LT1:257)<br />

erual laurë "gold", but of golden light and<br />

colour, not of the metal. In Etym defined as "light of<br />

the golden Tree Laurelin, gold" - but not properly<br />

used of the metal gold (LÁWAR/GLÁWAR,<br />

GLAW(-R) ). In early "Qenya", however, laurë was<br />

defined as "(the mystic name of) gold" (LT1:255,<br />

258) or simply "gold" (LT1:248, 268).<br />

erualacaM Macalaurë ("Makalaurë"), masc.<br />

name, the mother-name (never used in narrative) of<br />

Canafinwë = Maglor (PM:353, MAK); his Sindarin<br />

name is seen to be based on his mother-name. In the<br />

Etymologies, Macalaurë is interpreted "Goldcleaver"<br />

(MAK)<br />

erualodnU Undolaurë "Glorund" (><br />

Glaurung). Also Laurundo. (LT2:341)<br />

eruam maurë "need" (MBAS)<br />

eruat taurë "(great) wood, forest" (SA:taur,<br />

Letters:308, TÁWAR), pl. tauri in Markirya<br />

erúl lúrë "dark weather" (LT1:259)<br />

erúlap palúrë "surface, bosom, bosom of<br />

Earth" (= Old English folde) (PAL); cf. Palúrien.<br />

?mist" (Silm)<br />

erús súrë "wind", instrumental súrinen "in<br />

the wind" or more literally *"by the wind" (Nam,<br />

RGEO:66, Markirya); Súrion masc.name, *"Wind-<br />
