kalamor

collective name. Light-elves

A name for the “Light-elves” appearing in linguistic notes and The Etymologies from the 1930s (LR/197, KAL/ID). It seems to be a combination of kala “light” and the plural of the agental suffix -mo. Note that this form was incorrectly marked as Noldorin in The Etymologies as published in the Lost Road (EtyAC/KAL).
