mineth

noun. island

A word in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s glossed “island” (GL/57), probably connected to the root ᴱ√MINI in the contemporaneous Qenya Lexicon as suggested by Christopher Tolkien, as it was the basis of other words for raised objects like ᴱQ. mindon “turret” (LT1A/Minethlos; QL/061).
