sanguma

noun. press, *thing that presses

A word in the Declension of Nouns (DN) of the early 1930s glossed “a press”, a combination of the verbal element ᴹQ. sanga- with the instrumental suffix ᴹQ. -ma (PE21/8), hence more literally a “✱thing that presses”.

Middle Primitive Elvish

krab

root. press

A root in The Etymologies of the 1930s glossed “press” used as the basis for the [Noldorin] word for cram (Ety/KRAB). Later Tolkien decided this was a word in the language of the men of Dale; see Wes. cram for discussion.
