ramna

noun. wing (horn)

A neologism for “wing (horn)” created by Boris Shapiro in PPQ (PPQ) from the early 2000s, the equivalent of N. rhafn and derived from the primitive form ᴹ✶ramna. I wouldn’t use such a word, however, since Tolkien had the opportunity to given the Quenya form of this word and chose not to. I’d use a loose compound like ráma-ólemë “wing-elbow” or ráma-rassë “wing-horn”.
