naug

noun/adjective. stunted, dwarf

naug

noun/adjective. a Dwarf

naugrim

collective name. Dwarves

A term for the Dwarves as a race, translated “Stunted People” (S/91) or “Stunted Folk” (WJ/388), a combination of naug “stunted” and the class-plural suffix -rim (SA/naug, rim; WJ/388).

Conceptual Development: In earliest Lost Tales, the common collective term for the Dwarves was G. Nauglath (LT1/236), replaced with N. Nauglar or Nauglir in the Silmarillion drafts from the 1930s (SM/104, 311; LR/405). Later in the 1930s, the form Naug-rim emerged (LR/273), which Tolkien generally used thereafter.

nauglamír

proper name. Necklace of the Dwarves

The Necklace of the Dwarves holding a Silmaril (S/114), a combination of [N.] naugol “Dwarf” and mîr “jewel” (SA/mîr), the middle a perhaps being the archaic genitive suffix -a.

Conceptual Development: In the earliest Lost Tales, this name was G. Nauglafring (LT2/221), a form that was retained in the early Silmarillion drafts (SM/33, SM/134), but was replaced with Ilk. Nauglamír later in the 1930s (SM/313, LR/141). In The Etymologies, this name was designated Doriathrin [Ilkorin], with its initial element being the genitive of Dor. naugol “dwarf” (Ety/NAUK, MIR). This form was not updated in the Silmarillion revisions from the 1950s-60s, but no longer fit the phonology of later Sindarin (the expected form would be Nauglavir). Either it was dialectical or (more likely) Tolkien never got around to revising it.

niben-nog

proper name. Petty Dwarf

A Sindarin term for a Petty Dwarf (PE17/46), a variation on the better known Nogoth Niben, a combination of niben “petty” and a suffixal form -nog of naug “dwarf”, because [[s|[au] became [o] in polysyllables]] in Sindarin. This term was first published in its plural forms Nibin-noeg (UT/100) and Nibin-nogrim “Petty-dwarves” (UT/148). Tolkien considered numerous variations on the singular form of this name (WJ/187, note #26).
