hiw

adjective. rich

A word Early Noldorin Word-lists of the 1920s glossed “rich”, derived from ᴱ✶pingwé (PE13/147). The editors suggest it was likely related to ᴱQ. pingwa “fat, rich (of soil)” from the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s (QL/74).

awes

adjective. rich

gwes(t)

adjective. rich

lhub

noun. fat

A noun appearing as ᴱN. lhub “fat” in Early Noldorin Word-lists of the 1920s (PE13/149). It was a later iteration G. lub “fat, fat flesh” in Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s derived from primitive ᴱ✶lūpe (GL/55).

Neo-Sindarin: I think it is worth retaining these words for purposes of Neo-Sindarin as ᴺS. lûb “fat, (fat) flesh” from a Neo-Root ᴺ√LUP.

aute

adjective. rich

malke

adjective. rich

silk(in)a

adjective. rich, fat, glossy

An adjective in Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s with variants silka, silkina and glosses “rich, fat, glossy” derived from the early root ᴱ√SḶKḶ “rich, lush” (QL/86).

pingwa

adjective. fat, rich (of soil)

An adjective glossed “fat, rich (of soil)” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s under the early root ᴱ√PIẆI (QL/74).

turuvoite

adjective. rich in timber

An adjective for “rich in timber” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s, a combination of ᴱQ. turu “wood (material)” and the suffix ᴱQ. -voite (QL/96).

laruke

adjective. fat, rich

píwe

noun. fatness, richness, goodness

A noun in Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s glossed “fatness, richness, goodness” derived from the early root ᴱ√PIẆI (QL/74).

pyúva

adjective. fat

sḷkḷ

root. rich, lush

ᴱ√SḶKḶ² “rich, lush” was variant of the root ᴱ√SṚKṚ “fat” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s with derivatives ᴱQ. silk(in)a “rich, fat, glossy” and ᴱQ. silqe “gloss hair” (QL/86), possibly the same as ᴱ√SḶKḶ from which “grass” words were derived (QL/84). In The Etymologies of the 1930s, ᴹ√SALAK was used exclusively of “grass” words.

sṛkṛ

root. fat

lar

root. rich, fat

A root in The Etymologies of the 1930s glossed “rich, fat” (EtyAC/LAR), a later iteration of the root ᴱ√LARA from the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s which had derivatives like ᴱQ. laru “fat, grease” and ᴱQ. laruke “fat, rich” (QL/51). The 1930s root includes the derivative ᴹQ. larma “[?pig-]fat, flesh” so it likewise seems to refer to fatty flesh and rich food, but in the 1930s it replaced a deleted entry with both ᴹ√LAR and ᴹ√LAS whose derivatives had glosses connected to blessedness and luck (EtyAC/LAR), so it seems Tolkien was vacillating somewhat on the meaning of this root.

lárea

adjective. fat, rich

A word in The Etymologies of the 1930s glossed “fat, rich”, the adjectival form of ᴹQ. lar under the root ᴹ√LAR “rich, fat” (EtyAC/LAR).

Conceptual Development: When this entry was first written, root forms were ᴹ√LAR/LAS, this word had two forms lára and lárea, and its gloss was “blessed” (EtyAC/LAR). When Tolkien updated this root to be “fat, rich” he seems to have restored the early root ᴱ√LARA from the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s whose derivatives also had to do with “fat” (QL/51). As such, the 1930s word lárea “fat, rich” seems to be a later iteration of ᴱQ. {larda >>} laruke “fat, rich” from this 1910s root.

Neo-Quenya: For purposes Neo-Quenya, I would use this word to refer to the rich taste of food, especially richness as derived from fat (including from substances like butter or even vegetable fats), such as “this soup is rich (tastes good because of fats)” = sina sulpa lárëa (ná). For “fatty” of actual flesh or meat I would instead use ᴺQ. larmëa.

alya

adjective. rich, prosperous, abundant, blessed

herenya

adjective. fortunate, wealthy, blessed, rich

lar

noun. fat, riches [richness?], fat, richness, riches

A noun in The Etymologies of the 1930s glossed “fat, riches” derived from the root ᴹ√LAR “rich, fat” (EtyAC/LAR). In their Addenda and Corrigenda to the Etymologies, Carl Hostetter and Patrick Wynne suggest that the gloss “riches” was perhaps intended to be “richness” since another word ᴹQ. larma in the same entry was originally glossed “fat, richness” before being revised to “(pig?)-fat, flesh”.

Conceptual Development: When this entry was first written, the root forms were ᴹ√LAR/LAS and the gloss of lar was “Fortune (good), prosperity, Bliss” (EtyAC/LAR). When Tolkien updated this root to be “fat, rich” he seems to have restored the early root ᴱ√LARA from the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s whose derivatives also had to do with “fat” (QL/51).

Neo-Quenya: For purposes of Neo-Quenya, I would use this word to refer to fat (fattiness) or richness in the taste of food as in “the richness (lar) of the soup”. I would use ᴹQ. larma to refer to specific piece of fat within flesh as in “cut the fat (larma) from the meat”.

larma

noun. (?pig-)fat, flesh, fat [as a substance], (?pig-)fat, flesh

A noun in The Etymologies of the 1930s glossed “(?pig-)fat, flesh” under the root ᴹ√LAR “rich, fat” (EtyAC/LAR); the first half “pig” of the first word in the gloss was unclear.

Conceptual Development: When this entry was first written, the root forms were ᴹ√LAR/LAS and this word was glossed “a lucky event, (?pleasure, mirth)”; the last two words in the gloss were unclear (EtyAC/LAR). When Tolkien updated this root to be “fat, rich” he seems to have restored the early root ᴱ√LARA from the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s whose derivatives also had to do with “fat” (QL/51).

Neo-Quenya: For purposes Neo-Quenya, I would use this word to primarily refer to “fat” as a substance, either living or unliving, especially fat used in the preparation of food. For “flesh” in general as part of a body I would use Q. hrávë.
