umbardacil
masculine name. Conqueror of Umbar
A name assumed by the 28th kings of Gondor to celebrate his conquest of Umbar (LotR/1038, 1048). This name is a combination of Umbar and the suffix -(n)dacil “-victor, -slayer”, also seen in Hyarmendacil and Rómendacil. It was translated by Christopher Tolkien as “Conqueror of Umbar” (UTI/Telumehtar).
Umbardacil
umbar-victor
Umbardacil masc. name (or title) "Umbar-victor" (Appendix A); the place-name Umbar is not Quenya and has no connection with umbar "fate".
ambar
a-mbar
ambar (1) ("a-mbar") noun "oikumenē [Greek: the earth as the human habitation], Earth, world" (MBAR), stem ambar- (PE17:66), related to and associated with mar "home, dwelling" (VT45:33); in VT46:13 the latter glosses are possibly also ascribed to the word ambar itself (the wording is not clear). The form ambaren also listed in the Etymologies was presumably intended as the genitive singular at the time of writing (in LotR-style Quenya it would rather be the dative singular); in the printed version in LR, the misreading "ambaron" appears (see VT45:33). Ambar-metta noun "the end of the world" (EO); spelt ambarmetta in VT44:36. The element #umbar in Tarumbar "King of the World" (q.v.) would seem to be a variant of ambar, just like ambar #2 "doom" also alternates with umbar (see below).
umbarto
masculine name. Fated
ambar
fate, doom
ambar (2) noun "fate, doom" (variant of umbar?) in Turambar (SA:amarth); stem ambart- (PE17:66), instrumental ambartanen "by doom" (Silm ch. 21, UT:138, PE17:66). The early "Qenya" lexicon has ambar "Fate", also amarto (LT2:348)
Umbarto
fated
Umbarto masc. name, "Fated", mother-name (never used in narrative) of Telufinwë = Amras. The ominous name was altered to Ambarto by Fëanor. (PM:353-354)
umbarta-
to define, decree, destine
umbarta- vb. "to define, decree, destine"; this form of the verb was used "in more lofty senses", otherwise marta- (PE17:104)
ambar
noun. fate, doom, fate, doom, [ᴱQ.] lot
umbarta-
verb. to define, decree, destine
Tarumbar
king of the world
Tarumbar noun; apparently "King of the World" (possibly an ephemeral form): this would be tár "king" (q.v.) + umbar as a variant of Ambar "world".
umbarwa
adjective. fateful
amarto
fate
amarto noun "Fate" (also ambar) (LT2:348; in LotR-style Quenya rather umbar, umbart-)
ampano
building
ampano noun "building" (especially of wood), "wooden hall" (PAN; alternative form umpano, VT45:36, which Tolkien in one case altered to ampano, VT46:8). In the pre-classical Tengwar system presupposed in the Etymologies, ampano was also the name of tengwa #6 (VT46:8), which letter Tolkien would later call umbar instead (changing its value from mp to mb).
Ambarussa
top-russet
Ambarussa masc. name "top-russet", alternation of Umbarto, mother-name (never used in narrative) of Telufinwë = Amras (PM:353-354)
ambarussa
masculine name. Top-russet
marta-
to chance
marta- (1) vb. "to chance" or *"happen" (QL:63), cf. mart- "it happens" (impersonal) (LT2:348 read marta-?). Another version assigns transitive meanings to the same verb: "to define, decree, destine" (with the last sense = martya-, q.v.), with a variant umbarta- "in more lofty senses" (PE17:104)
marta-
verb. to define, decree, destine, to define, decree, destine; [ᴱQ.] to happen (impers.), chance

marta
fate
marta (3) noun "fate" (VT45:33, VT46:13) Cf. marto.
umbar (umbart-, as in dat.sg. umbarten) noun "fate, doom" (MBARAT), also name of tengwa #6 (Appendix E).Cf. Umbarto. In the pre-classical Tengwar system presupposed in the Etymologies, umbar was the name of letter #18 (VT45:33), which tengwa Tolkien would later call malta instead changing its Quenya value from mb to m. In the word Tarumbar "King of the World" (q.v.), umbar appears to be a variant of Ambar (q.v.) instead.
