aglann

noun. ray of light

A noun appearing as ᴱN. {aglen >>} aglann “ray of light” in the Early Noldorin Word Lists of the 1910s (PE13/136, 158), probably derived from the early root ᴱ√KALA (QL/44). It may be related to G. {aglan >>} aglen “a flash” appearing in Gnomish Lexicon Slips (PE13/108), and perhaps replaced G. augla “ray of sunlight, sunbeam” (GL/20), though this last word appears to be derived from ᴱ√AWA “burn; be parched, yellow, warm” (QL/33).

Neo-Sindarin: I think this word can be adapted into Neo-Sindarin as ᴺS. aglann “ray of light”, related to ᴹQ. alka of the same meaning.

alfuilin

noun. large white sea-bird, albatross, †swan

The noun ᴱN. alfuilin was “used of several large white seabirds, especially the albatross” in the Early Noldorin Dictionary of the 1920s, an elaboration of ᴱN. alf “swan”. In the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s, G. {alcothil >>} alfuil simply meant “swan” (GL/19), and the word alfuilin appeared with that gloss in a couple of other word lists (PE13/109, PE13/136) before becoming “albatross”.

Neo-Sindarin: I’d adapt this word as ᴺS. alfuil “albatross, large white seabird” for purposes of Neo-Sindarin, perhaps originally with the sense “*swan of the seaweed”.
