balt

noun. force, force, [ᴱN.] might

A word for “force” appearing in notes on the Common Eldarin Article (CEA) from 1969 (PE23/136), clearly base on √BAL “power”.

Conceptual Development: The word ᴱN. balt “might” appeared in Early Noldorin Word-lists, initially glossed “a plain” (PE13/138). As suggested by the editors, the meaning “might” is probably connected to G. bâl (bald-) “worthy, important; great, mighty” from the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s, derived from the early root ᴱ√vḷd (GL/21), while the meaning “plain” is probably connected to G. bladwen “a plain” (GL/23), which is likely based on the early root ᴱ√PALA or ✱ᴱ√BALA (QL/71).
