A word for “line” implied by S. aeglir “line of peaks” as in Hithaeglir “Line of Misty Peaks” (RC/11; SA/hîth). The Etymologies of the 1930s had N. lhîr “row” under the root ᴹ√LIR (Ety/LIR²), with the unvoicing of initial *l* as was normal in Noldorin of the 1930s but not Sindarin of the 1950s and 60s.
