Primitive elvish

nath

root. welcome, be kind to

A root appearing with Notes on Names (NN) from 1957 glossed “welcome, be kind to”, with what appears to be a primitive word and its Sindarin derivative: ✶nathlo and S. nathal “guest” (PE17/141).

maedol

 adjective. welcome

Formed with the prefix mae- (PE17:163) which is not explicitly translated, although the root meaning of MAY- is given as 'excellent, admirable' (PE17:163). Compare also the adverb S. mae 'well' (PE17:162) and the Quenya cognate †maie, prefix mai- (although these are said to possibly derive from MAG-/MAƷ- 'handle, manage, control, wield').

The second part is the lenited blank verb stem tol 'come' as in rhudol 'unwelcome' (PE17:170). Although one could also form *al(a)dol based on Q. alatúlie, alatulya 'welcome' and the cited S. al- (PE17:172), this conflicts with the negative prefix al-, as in S. alfirin 'immortal', Q. alasaila 'unwise'. Presumably the two conceptions should not overlap, otherwise it is difficult to see how words like Q. alacarna can mean both 'well-done' and 'un-done'.

Early Primitive Elvish

gwese

root. greet, welcome

A (Gnomish-only?) root implicit in the verb G. gwes- from the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s, with other derivatives like G. gwest “greeting, welcome, salute”, G. gwesol “affable”, and G. gwîs “entertainment” (GL/46-47). There are no signs of this root in Tolkien’s later writing. The later root √NATH “welcome, be kind to” seems to have a similar meaning.

túvima

adjective. acceptable

A word appearing as ᴱQ. tūvima “acceptable” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s based in the verb ᴱQ. tuvu- “receive, accept” (QL/96).

Neo-Quenya: For purposes of Neo-Quenya I would update this adjective to ᴺQ. cávima “acceptable” based on the later verb cav- “receive, ✱accept”, especially since túvima was glossed “discoverable” in Tolkien’s later writings (PE22/155). In his NQNT (NQNT) Helge Fauskanger instead had ᴺQ. maicámima “acceptable” (lit. “well-receivable”) based on the alternate verb form cam- “receive”.
