2 | quenya | a | tumbelamorna | lack deep valley | tum: 'valley' in Tumhalad, Tumladen; Quenya tumbo (cf. Treebeard's tumbalemorna 'lack deep valley'. The Two Towers III 4). Cf.

3 | sindarin | a | and | a | and | ar-: 'beside, outside' (whence Quenya ar 'and', Sindarin a), probably in Araman 'outside Aman'; cf. also (Nirnaeth) Arnoediad '(Tears) without reckoning'. | S | Elements in Quenya and Sindarin Names | ||
4 | sindarin | a | oh* | a elbereth gilthoniel | dôr: 'land' (i.e. dry land as opposed to sea) was derived from ndor; it occurs in many Sindarin names, as Doriath, Dorthonion, Eriador, Gondor, Mordor, etc. In Quenya the stem was blended and confused with a quite distinct word nórë meaning 'people'; in origin Valinórë was strictly 'the people of the Valar', but Valandor 'the land of the Valar', and similarly Númen(n)órë 'people of the West', but Númendor 'land of the West'. Quenya Endor 'Middle-earth' was from ened 'middle' and ndor; this in Sindarin became Ennor (cf. ennorath 'middle lands' in the chant A Elbereth Gilthoniel). | S | Elements in Quenya and Sindarin Names | |||

8 | sindarin | achad | neck | achad tarlang | tarlang's neck | It was said that when 'in ancient days' some giants were building the White Mountains as a wall to keep Men out of their land by the Sea, one of them called Tarlang tripped and fell on his face and as he was carrying a heavy load of rocks on his head he broke his neck and was killed. The other giants used his body to complete the wall at that point, but left his heck lying southward, leading to the three mountains of the spur: _Dol Tarlang_ 'Tarlang's Head', _Cûl Veleg_ 'Bigload' and _Cûl Bîn_ 'Little Load.' The break in his neck was shown by a depression in the ridge, near the junction with Tarlang's Head, over which the road went. In consequence the _Tarlang_ was called _Achad Tarlang_ using another word for 'neck' (Q[uenya] _axo_), properly referring only to the bony vertebral part and not including the throat, this was generally called in the vernacular C[ommon] S[peech] _Tarlang's Neck_. | RC:536 | |||

10 | quenya | adan | men | adan | men | Adan: 'The Second People', Men (singular Atan).
