eressëa

adjective. lonely

eressai

place name. Eressai

A Sindarin name for Tol Eressëa appearing on the so-called “Turin’s Wrapper” (VT50/19). As suggested by Carl Hostetter, it is a phonetic adaptation of its Quenya name.

Conceptual Development: In Gnomish Lexicon from the 1910s, the equivalent of its Quenya name was G. Tol Erethrin (GL/28, 71), while in The Etymologies from the 1930s it was N. Toll-ereb (Ety/TOL²), both translations of the Quenya name rather than adapations.
