[arma (2) noun "possessions, goods, property" (VT45:14), "a piece of goods or property" (VT45:16)]

armar

armar noun "goods" (pl.) (3AR). Compare the sg. arma "a piece of goods or property" mentioned above, though Tolkien struck out that text.

harma

treasure, a treasured thing

harma (1) noun "treasure, a treasured thing" (3AR), also name of tengwa #11, later (MET) called aha (Appendix E).

harma

noun. treasure, treasure, [ᴹQ.] treasured thing

A word for “treasure” and name of tengwa #11 [d] in The Lord of the Rings Appendix E (LotR/1123).

Conceptual Development: In notes on The Feanorian Alphabet from the 1930s, harma “treasure” was the name of the tengwar ½ (later called halla) while ohta was the name of d (PE22/22). By the 1940s harma had become the name of d (PE22/51). In The Etymologies of the 1930s ᴹQ. harma was glossed “treasure, a treasured thing” and derived from the root ᴹ√ƷAR “have, hold” (Ety/ƷAR).

harwë

treasure, treasury

harwë (2) noun "treasure, treasury" (3AR)(For clarity, harma may be used for "treasure")

heren

fortune

heren (2) noun "fortune", etymologically "governance" ("and so what is in store for one and what one has in store") (KHER).Herendil masc. name *"Fortune-friend" = Eadwine, Edwin, _Audoin(LR:52, 56, cf. the Etymologies, stems KHER-, NIL/NDIL)_

Early Quenya

ausie

noun. wealth

A word appearing as ᴱQ. ausie “wealth” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s under the early root ᴱ√AW̯A having to do with riches and property (QL/33).

Neo-Quenya: The root √AW “possess, own, keep” resurfaced in Late Notes on Verb Structure (LVS) from 1969, along with a derivative aura “possession, thing owned”. As such I would adapted this Early Qenya word as ᴺQ. aurië “wealth” as an abundance of possessions, an abstract noun based on aura.

milkin

noun. wealth

A noun appearing as ᴱQ. milkin “wealth” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s under the early root ᴱ√MḶKḶ “possess” (QL/62).

Neo-Quenya: Given S. maelig “wealth, abundance” < √MILIK from the 1950s, I think ᴺQ. milcin “wealth” can be retained for purposes of Neo-Quenya.

A Qenya name for G. Ausir in the Qenya Lexicon from the 1910s (QL/33), also appearing as Autar and replacing rejected Avar/Avas.

aute

noun. goods, property, wealth, money

A noun for “goods, property, wealth, money” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s under the early root ᴱ√AW̯A (QL/33).

Neo-Quenya: Since √AW “possess, own, keep” resurfaced in Late Notes on Verb Structure (LVS) from 1969, I would retain ᴺQ. autë for purposes of Neo-Quenya, but only in the sense “property”. For “goods” I would use ᴹQ. armar, for “wealth” ᴺQ. aurië, and for “money” telpë.

heren

noun. fortune, (lit.) governance

A word in The Etymologies of the 1930s glossed “fortune” derived from the root ᴹ√KHER “rule, govern, possess” (Ety/KHER). Tolkien indicated the literal meaning of this noun was “governance”, and its actual sense is “what is in store for one and what one has in store”. Thus I believe it is “fortune” in this sense of what is due to you, both by dint of your own efforts and was it owed to you by your position in society, as opposed to mere luck. In the first draft of this entry heren had the additional glosses “goods, wealth”, but these were deleted (EtyAC/KHER).

A plural noun in The Etymologies of the 1930s glossed “goods” derived from the root ᴹ√GAR (Ety/GAR). It was initially given as singular arma meaning {“possessions, goods, property” >>} “a piece of good or property” (EtyAC/GAR, ƷAR).

Conceptual Development: The Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s had ᴱQ. vakt- “wares” under the early root ᴱ√VAKA (QL/99).

noun. goods

A (singular) noun for “goods” in Early Noldorin Word-lists of the 1920s, based on the adjective ᴱN. maur “good” (PE13/150). Moir was originally the plural of the adjective, but Tolkien later decided the plural form of the adjective was identical to its singular form and moir was a noun instead.
