BUILDING UP A DICTIONARY

“Creating a dictionary is a long process” wrote Ryszard Derdzinski´ in his foreword to his own Sindarin dictionary, Gobeth e-Lam Edhellen1. This is especially true for an invented language such as Sindarin, when one has to face J.R.R. Tolkien’s ever-changing conception, from the ‘Noldorin’ presented in the Etymologies2 to the ‘Sindarin’ exemplified in The Lord of the Rings. As noted by Edouard Kloczko in his excellent work on Quenya3, the language spoken by the High Elves had already reached a fairly stable state in the late thirties. Beside a few casual entries, and notwithstanding small orthographic revisions, the Qenya dialect from the Etymolo- gies does not fundamentally contradict the later Quenya from the Lord of the Rings period. Most Tolkienian scholars nowadays agree that they constitute a same language, showing an undeniable continuity of inspiration. Conversely, the language finally known as Sindarin presents several difficulties of its own. When the Etymologies were written, it was attributed to the exiled Noldor who settled in Middle-earth, following Fëanor in his rebellion against the divine Valar. Henceforth, it was first named, quite rightly at that time, ‘Noldorin’. Although the linguistic structures had en- tirely been reworked by Tolkien, the old conception underlied in his Book of Lost Tales was still valid, and this welsh-inspired language was therefore intended to replace the Gnomish id- iom from 1916–1917. Despite their differences, ‘Noldorin’ is but the successor of Gnomish4. Nevertheless, during the writing of the Lord of the Rings appendices, Tolkien decided that the Noldor should finally speak Quenya – more precisely a dialectal variant known as Ñoldorin and only differing from Vanyarin Quenya on a fairly small number of phonological rules. The former ‘Noldorin’ tongue was then attributed to the Grey Elves, and renamed ‘Sindarin’ on that very occasion. At this point, the reader will have understood that the ‘Noldorin’ words from the Etymolo- gies should now be treated as ‘Sindarin’. And indeed, they are included in this dictionary. The things, however, are more complex than this rapid sketch seems to imply. Not only did Tolkien change the name of the language and the people speaking it, but he also applied several changes to its words. Some of these structural modifications, as it will be seen, were made quite sys- tematically, according to regular shifts in Tolkien’s conception of the phonology of Sindarin. Unfortunately, Tolkien abandoned the Etymologies shortly before the completion of the first volume of his famous trilogy, and his later revisions are not documented in any published text (supposing that he ever wrote them down – he might as well have applied them without record-

Sindarin dictionary 3 ing the new rules in written form). They can only be guessed from short notes here and there in the later sources, and from careful comparisons of words occurring both in the Etymologies and in The Lord the Rings. I will not try to list in this foreword all the rules required to migrate the old ‘Noldorin’ words into Sindarin. A few examples are provided in the introductory chapter, and this complex subject is also better presented elsewhere5. It should just be mentioned here that the present dictionary attempts to handle all these difficult points seriously. I will leave it to the reader to decide whether it is a success or a failure. — ❦ — While I was still struggling to achieve this work, a friend once asked me whether he should wait for its completion, or whether he should try to obtain Ryszard Derdzinski’´ s dictionary instead. “Get both of them”, I immediately answered without hesitation. The fact that there are now two Sindarin dictionaries in existence should not be regarded as a problem. They were done for different purposes, reflecting the understanding and the ideas of there respective authors. To this respect, they certainly enrich each other, presenting different points of view or different solutions for problematic issues. This work initially began as an independent project, whose primary aim was to provide a complete and accurate Sindarin search engine on the Internet. The entries were produced auto- matically in alphabetical order, whereas Ryszard Derdzinski´ arranges them more consistently. Ryszard’s dictionary also includes all the words marked as ‘Doriathrin’ and ‘Ilkorin’ in the Etymologies6 whereas mine only contains the ‘(Exilic) Noldorin’ forms. On the other hand, this dictionary provides the phonetic transcription for all entries, and is also more consistent (or so I believe) in its treatment of misreadings and in its normalization of ‘Noldorin’. Finally, Ryszard’s dictionary gives Tolkien’s own etymologies, as appearing in the published texts; the present lexicon includes David Salo’s etymological reconstructions, which sometimes slightly differ from Tolkien’s explanations, but present several advantages for the study of the ‘ultimate’ form of the language. In conclusion, I hope that Tolkien’s fans will enjoy both dictionaries, and regard them as complementary. — ❦ — As a final word, I would like to thank all the persons who made this work possible. For the sake of brevity, I called it “my dictionary” above, but it would not have existed without the efforts of many other peoples. In especial, Lisa Star (editor of Tyalië Tyelelliéva) and Helge Kåre Fauskanger (webmaster of Ardalambion) gave me precious advices and encouragments at the beginning of the project. David Salo sent me his own lexicons, and kindly accepted that I use his reconstructed etymologies in this dictionary. My friend Cédric Fockeu (webmaster of J.R.R. Tolkien en Version Française) offered his technical skill in scripting languages, as well as disk space to host the original on-line search engine. My thanks are also addressed to Ryszard Derdzinski,´ Dorothea Salo, B. Philip Jonsson, Sébastien Mallet and the members of the ELFLING mailing-list, for their support during this long project.

5. Helge Kåre FAUSKANGER’s Ardalambion web site on the Internet is a strongly recommended source of in- formation. Several articles are devoted to the study of the relations between ‘Noldorin’ and ‘Sindarin’. This dictionary intensively relies on FAUSKANGER’s work (see pp. 9–11). 6.

4 Hiswelókë – Special issue no1 LEXICONS & DICTIONARIES

We understood the Voice in our hearts, though we had no words yet. Then the desire for words awoke in us, and we began to make them. But we were few, and the world was wide and strange. Though we greatly desired to understand, learning was difficult, and the making of words was slow. [J.R.R. Tolkien, Athrabeth Finrod ah Andreth]

Sindarin is the language of the Grey Elves, invented by J.R.R. Tolkien and exemplified in his masterful epic story The Lord of the Rings. This work aims at being a complete Sindarin dictionary, addressing not only Tolkien’s fans wishing to understand the elvish sentences from The Lord of the Rings or to build simple sentences in Sindarin, but also scholars wanting to study Sindarin for what it is: the complex linguistic invention of a philology professor, and also a beautiful piece of art. A few Sindarin lexicons – not to mention Quenya – are floating here and there around the Internet, but they are generally inaccurate and outdated, beside being usually unimpressive in appearance. They often consist in mere compilations of the material available in The Lord of the Rings and The Silmarillion, without taking into account the The History of Middle-earth series. Most of these lexicons do not deserve to be called dictionaries. Words are listed without any annotation, indication of use and textual reference. Generally the compiler had neither a real scolarship in elvish linguistics, nor the will to build a real dictionary worthy of the name. Hence- forth, there is often no attempt to mention and to correct the evident errors7 from The Silmaril- lion index or from the Etymologies. And when the latter source is used, the so-called ‘Noldorin’ vocabulary is not clearly identified and distinguished from Sindarin. Tolkien constantly revised his languages, and although the language known as ‘Noldorin’ in the Etymologies evolved into Sindarin when The Lord of The Rings was written, it underwent several fundamental changes. Ignoring the ‘Noldorin’ words leaves us with very few words, but on the other hand using this vocabulary requires some care8. Therefore, it appears that serious students of J.R.R. Tolkien’s invented languages are in great need of a true dictionary, that would try to be complete, accurate and consistent in its

7. For instance, the term for ‘word’ is given as beth in The Silmarillion (following Gandalf’s lasto beth lammen in The Lord of the Rings, book I, chapter IV), but it should actually read peth. The initial /b/ in the inflected form is caused by a characteristic consonant mutation in Sindarin, called a lenition. The problems raised by the Etymologies are somewhat different: the manuscript text was in parts extremely difficult to decipher, and it seems that Christopher TOLKIEN made a few errors or misinterpretations. For instance, hamnia ‘to clothe’ is conceivably a misreading for *hamma, cf. the cognate word hammad ‘clothing’. Most of these probable errors are listed on Helge Kåre FAUSKANGER’s Ardalambion website. 8. The Etymologies list the plural of adar ‘father’ as eder, edeir. But we know from later sources, notably Morgoth’s Ring, that the attested plural should be edair in Sindarin. Similarly, the plural of habad ‘shore’ is given as hebeid, but we would conceivably have to update it into *hebaid in order to use it in a Sindarin text. This is a simple example, but there are some complex issues involved when dealing with the ‘Noldorin’ material. Some of these problems are presented by Helge Kåre FAUSKANGER in his articles “AE or OE, Tolkien’s hard choice” and “LH and RH (not to mention HL and HL)”. See also p. 9.

Sindarin dictionary 5 presentation. On a minimal basis, the Sindarin words shall be presented with their definition (either a translation or an explanation), their grammatical role (part of speech), and the textual references (books and pages where the word is mentioned). For a pertinent use, cognate entries and inflected forms shall be related to each other. Probable misreadings should be corrected and mentioned to the reader. Additionally, information not indicated by Tolkien himself but derived from his own presentation of the language would make an highly valuable contribution to the study of the Sindarin language. Among these improvements, phonetics, hypothetical forms and deduced words9 may be listed. All these things I have tried to include in the following pages, in hope that they will be useful to all readers and students of the linguistic inventions of J.R.R. Tolkien.

9. For instance, the word *gwathren ‘shadowy’ (plural *gwethrin) is not attested in the sources, but can be de- duced from gwath ‘shadow’ and Ered Wethrin ‘Shadowy Mountains’ (where the loss of the initial /g/ is due to the lenition phenomenon already mentioned above).

6 Hiswelókë – Special issue no1 ENTRY ARRANGEMENTS P TUTORIAL GUIDE

The language presented in this dictionary is Classical Sindarin, where this term is to be under- stood as “Third Age Sindarin as spoken by the Grey-Elves”. It is therefore intended to be the language described in The Lord of the Rings, but without all the peculiarities of the pronunci- ation used in Gondor. Indeed, the sounds of Sindarin were not pronounced by Men as an Elf speaking his own native tongue would have done. In Appendix E, Tolkien notes that /ch/ was

always pronounced Q%R'S in the speech of Gondor, except at the end of words. That change “had been recognized in a few names, such as Rohan, Rohirrim”. Similarly, “in the Third Age final /nd/ in long words had become n from nn, as in Ithilien, Rohan, Anórien”. As far as possible, this dictionary attempts to restore the original grey-elven orthography and phonetics: Rochann, Rochirrim, etc. When several variants are provided by Tolkien, the most valid form in Classical Sindarin is retained as the main headword.

Main entries

Each word is given with its attested variants between parenthesis, its inflected forms (plural for a noun, past tense for a verb, etc.), its grammatical role and its definition. A typical entry looks

as follows:

XZY\[]S ^ _ cairTUQ%V'W (ceir) n. ship Ety/365, LotR/A(iv), X/EI MS *keir, OS *kiria (KIR).

Words immediately followed by a small star (T ) are attested in Sindarin (in that case, see ‘Cair Andros’ in The Lord of the Rings, appendix A). A word without this sign is attested in the ‘Noldorin’ dialect only (generally in the Etymologies). The ‘Noldorin’ words are also listed at

the proper place in the dictionary when their orthography differs from Sindarin: T ceir ` cair .

Deduced entries

A few words in the dictionary are not attested in full form in Tolkien’s writings, but may be deduced from place names or inflected forms occurring in a published text. In that case, they

are printed in italic:

Xf*[]gZh'S TiQcb]deW g*f*[]j h'S k gwathren TaQcb]deW , pl. gwethrin , adj. shadowy Ered Wethrin S/432.

Sindarin dictionary 7 Probable misreadings

Tolkien’s handwriting is sometimes difficult to decipher. Several probable errors have been corrected in the dictionary, according to our understanding of the Sindarin phonology. However, Christopher Tolkien’s original reading is always mentioned after the corrected word:

h h

o*p©pqor s t hamma- hamnia l%m'n v. to clothe Ety/363 OS *k amp a- (KHAP) hammad ger.

Etymologies

The etymological reconstructions presented in this dictionary are based on David Salo’s re-

search and are introduced by a diamond ( t ). David has spent much of his time understanding how Sindarin words are derived from Common Elvish. His notes try to extend Tolkien’s ever- changing rules, providing consistent and understandable etymologies (see p. 15).

Notes and related entries

The symbol introduces related entries, such as inflected forms of the main entry. Each related word is given with its grammatical role. This symbol is also used to introduce notes and editorial

comments.

o*v'wBr u s avou§lcn imp. of ava- , don’t! WJ/371 Used as a negative adverb before an

imperative: avo garo “don’t do it!”. Sometimes used as prefix: avgaro t OS *aba å (ABA).

Cognate English words

Looking for a Sindarin word in the dictionary is certainly useful for occasional readers of The Lord of the Rings wanting to understand the meaning of a peculiar Sindarin sentence or place name. However it may be somewhat frustrating for peoples who actually wish to express them- selves in Sindarin or to write texts or poems in this language. Therefore, a complete index of cognate words occurring in the definitions is provided after the dictionary (p. 79). Please note that these words should not be regarded as translations, as they only occur as part of the defini- tions. Therefore the reader should always refer to the associated Sindarin entries before using a word given in this list, in order to check in which context it should be used.

8 Hiswelókë – Special issue no1 THE ‘NOLDORIN’ MATERIAL

Updating ‘Noldorin’ entries from the Etymologies (as well as a few words from other sources) to valid Sindarin words is a rather complex process involving several rules. According to the conventions presented in the previous chapter, words which were not updated by Tolkien himself are marked as ‘deduced’, and therefore appear in italic in this dictionary.

They are also marked as Sindarin (x ), by opposition with deduced ‘Noldorin’ entries.

 }*~*'€ nedhu xzy%{'| (nedhw) n. bolster, cushion Ety/378, X/W.

The references include, as usual, the books where the word is given. Moreover, an additional reference is provided, so that the reader may understand which kind of normalization has been applied. In the above example, the ‘Noldorin’ word nedhw has been updated to nedhu in Sin- darin, following the rule ‘X/W’. All these normalization rules are briefly summarized below.

Transcription issues

Some changes are merely orthographic, regarding how a word should be written when tran- scribed in the latin alphabet.

X/HW: Except in one case (hwand ‘fungus’, where the other variants are also attested), Tolkien uses the combination /chw/ for several words in the Etymologies. However, these words all derive from roots beginning in *sw, and should probably be transcribed with a voice-

less /hw/ y%‚e€ . They would be written in Tengwar using the letter hwesta sindarinwa (no. 34). However, Tolkien is not very clear in Appendix E, and his explanations con- cerning the differences between Quenya (which uses hwesta, letter no. 12) and Sindarin are far from satisfying. In the dictionary, the orthograph /hw/ has been retained (see also p. 19).

X/PH: Tolkien uses the letter /f/ to represent the sound y%ƒ'€ finally, as in English ‘of’ (pro- yc†c€ nounced yc„ ƒ'€ ). Conversely, when the sound is expected finally (derived from a former p or kw), it should be written /ph/, for instance alph ‘swan’. However, Tolkien was not always consistent with this rule in the Etymologies, and he sometimes used /f/ for that

sound. In this dictionary, final yc†c€ is always transcribed as /ph/. According to Appendix E of The Lord of the Rings, medial /ph/ should also be used when for the assimilation of a former p or pp (as in ephel < *et + pel-, and aphadon < *ap- + pata).

Sindarin dictionary 9 Etymological issues

In a few cases, the changes performed by Tolkien may be regarded under a diachronical angle, as a form taken by the word in ‘Middle Sindarin’ (MS). These ‘Noldorin’ words are not rejected, but are regarded as earlier forms, within the context of the natural evolution of the language, until it reached the ‘Classical Sindarin’ (CS) considered as the standard in this dictionary.

X/EI: Old Sindarin final /ei/ was changed to /ai/ in Classical Sindarin, although /ei/ is still restored in compounds: aran, plural erain ‘king’, but Ereinion ‘Scion of Kings’. Several ‘Noldorin’ words in the Etymologies form their plural in /ei/ or /e/, for instance adar, plural edeir or eder. The former should be updated to /ai/ in Classical Sindarin, whereas the latter is likely to be discarded. In The War of the Jewels, several words are conceivably given in their earlier Sindarin form, e.g. Feir ‘Mortal’. All these words have been updated in the dictionary. X/MB: According to Appendix E of The Lord of the Rings, primitive “mb became m in all cases, but still counted as a long consonant for purposes of stress, and is thus written mm in cases where otherwise the stress might be in doubt”. For instance, compare ram ‘wall’ with rammas ‘great wall’. X/W: After a consonant, final vocalic -/w/ (from primitive Elvish *-we¯) became -/u/ in Sin- darin. See PM/344: “If Finwë had been treated as a word of this form would have been, had it occurred anciently in Sindarin, it would have been Finu”. But several early ‘Noldor- in’ words from the Etymologies have either -/u/ or -/w/, showing that Tolkien was uncer- tain about this issue at that time. They have all been normalized to -/u/ in this dictionary.

Conceptual changes

However, most differences between ‘Noldorin’ and Sindarin can only be explained as major changes in Tolkien’s conception of the phonology of the language. Some changes undoubtedly enter in this category (for instance ‘X/IU’). A few other changes could perhaps be explained by diachrony, although we believe it would seem quite far-fetched.

X/DL: In the Etymologies, the cluster /dl/ in compound words sometimes evolves into /gl/ (e.g. megli ‘bear’). There are some evidences that it should conceivably remain /dl/ in Sindarin (see also X/TL below). X/IU: According to Appendix E of The Lord of the Rings, the vowel /y/ “partly derived from older diphtongs eu, iu”. This rule was apparently added at a late stage by Tolkien, and several words from the Etymologies do not follow it (*iu evolves into /io/ in Noldorin, for instance iolf ‘brand’ from primitive *yulma¯). These words should conceivably be updated (iolf should probably read ylf in Sindarin). Nevertheless, this change remains highly hypothetical: only one late example is clearly attested, ylf (II) ‘drinking vessel’.

X/LD: The late example coll (II) ‘hollow’, attested in The War of the Jewels where it is derived from primitive Elvish *kulda¯, implies that final *ld evolves into /ll/ in Sindarin. In the Etymologies, this rule was not applied consistently (e.g. belt is derived from Old Sindarin *belda). In this dictionary, final /ll/ has been systematically adopted for all these words.

10 Hiswelókë – Special issue no1 X/LH: This complex issue is fully discussed in Helge Kåre Fauskanger’s article “LH and RH (not to mention HL and HR)”.

X/ND1: This issue is fully discussed in Helge Kåre Fauskanger’s article “The question of nd and nn”, section 1 (“The behavior of final nd in monosyllables”).

X/ND2: This issue is fully discussed in Helge Kåre Fauskanger’s article “The question of nd and nn”, section 2 (“The behavior of nd between vowels”).

X/ND3: This issue is fully discussed in Helge Kåre Fauskanger’s article “The question of nd and nn”, section 3 (“The behavior of nd before r”).

X/ND4: This issue is fully discussed in Helge Kåre Fauskanger’s article “The question of nd and nn”, section 4 (“The behavior of final nd in polysyllabic words”).

X/OE: This issue is fully discussed in Helge Kåre Fauskanger’s article “AE or OE, Tolkien’s hard choice”.

X/RH: This issue is fully discussed in Helge Kåre Fauskanger’s article “LH and RH (not to mention HL and HR)”.

X/TL: In the Etymologies, the cluster /tl/ in compound words remains unchanged (e.g. atlant ‘oblique, slanted’), or evolves into /gl/ (e.g. egledhi ‘to go into exile’). There are some evidences that it should conceivably evolve into /dl/ in Sindarin.

X/Z: Miscellaneous – Several ‘Noldorin’ words from the Etymologies have been updated, as they could not fit the Sindarin phonology as we understand it. For a good example of such a normalization, refer to the entries bass, bassoneth and bessain in the dictionary.

from the more recent one to the oldest.

Š‹*Œ= Ž  aes ˆc‰ n. cooked food, meat Ety/349 MS *ais, *axs, OS *apsa (AP1).

In this example, the word aes is based on a primitive root AP1 and derives from Old Sindarin *apsa, via Middle Sindarin *ais:

Classical Sindarin aes < Middle Sindarin *ais < *axs < Old Sindarin *apsa.

Literal meaning

The etymologies are also useful to interpret the meaning of a compound word. In the following

example, the literal translation of minuial is “first twilight”:

“'‰ ”*•—–%Š˜L Ž minuialiˆ%‘q’ n. ‘morrowdim’, the time near dawn, when the star fade

LotR/D  min+uial “first twilight”, OS *minuiañala.

Additional letters

A specific orthographic convention is used in the etymological notes, in order to represent ar- chaic sounds in Middle Sindarin or Old Sindarin. They did not survive in Classical Sindarin, or

evolved differently depending on their position in the word.

Tolkien used to render it as a digraph /oe/ in his texts, although it should not be confused with the diphtong ­c³B±*¯ . In Classical Sindarin, it was always pronounced ­c±*¯ , hence the regular transcription Gelydh in later sources.

English finger).

É.¯ ­%Á É.¯ The syllabic consonants ­c¹ and are usually realized as -/ol/ and -/or/ respectively, e.g. magol, dagor. A few dialectal variants are apparently attested; typically hathol, also given as hathel (in the Etymologies) and *hathal (in the name Hathaldir). Similarly, idher (in the Etymologies) should conceivably be *idhor in Classical Sindarin. Archaic Sindarin also had an additional fricative ­%Îq¯ , a “spirant m or a nasal v” in Tolkien’s own terms. In Aragorn’s letter to Samwise, Sauron defeated pp. 129–131, this letter is noted /mh/ (suilannad mhellyn în phain “to greet all his friends”). But it was always pronounced ­%»'¯ in the Third Age, as attested in many other mutated names (e.g. Eryn Vorn).

Miscellaneous signs

Ñ ÏcÒ Ñ

ÏcÐ Primary stress Length mark

Ñ ÏcÔ%Ñ

ÏcÓ Secundary stress Syllabic break Ñ Since there is no ambiguity, the length mark ÏcÒ is applied to long vowels (transcribed with an acute accent, dúnadan) as well as prolonged vowels in monosyllabic words (circumflex accent, dûn).

The syllabic break ÏcÔ%Ñ is only represented between clusters of independent vowels (e.g. perian ÖZ×]ØLÔ%Ù*Ú'Ñ Ï%Õ'Ð , since /ia/ is not a diphtong in Sindarin and counts as two syllables as far as meter is concerned).

Variants and allophones

The phonetic transcription adopted in these pages is simplified for the sake of clarity. Neverthe- less, allophones certainly existed, as well as dialectal varieties of pronunciation. As in any real language, the same letters were probably used for different sounds. Records of Tolkien singing A Elbereth Gilthoniel (in The Lord of the Rings, book II, chapter I)

are very instructive. The standalone preposition o in the third verse is pronounced with a sound ÏcÜÑ more rounded than ÏcÛBÑ , and is actually closer to . The final vowel in chaered (fourth verse) is also more open than the vowel heard in nef, and probably implies that ÏcÝ*Ñ is sometimes an allophone of ÏcÖ*Ñ .

Tolkien’s pronunciation cannot be entirely trusted, as observed by several Elvish scholars. Ï%ßÇÑ Chaered is pronounced with a strong and clear aspiration Ï%Þ'Ñ , although would be expected in true Sindarin: according to Appendix E, it was only weakened to Ï%Þ'Ñ in the speech of Gondor, and there is no reason why Elrond should speak with a mannish accent – unless the dialect of Imladris is strongly influenced by Quenya. Anyway, the fact that Tolkien himself uses different realizations of /o/ and /e/ is a good indication that the pronunciation could stand some variations.

96 Hiswelókë – Special issue no1 CONTRIBUTING TO THE DICTIONARY

There are certainly a number of things that could be enhanced in this dictionary. It should also be possible to improve the definitions, the encyclopaedic discussions and the overall presentation of the material. Several words may be missing, or incorrectly entered... All that to say: it’s up to you now, gentle reader, to comment on this work and make it a living thing. It is also the convenient place to note that the Sindarin/English lexicon10 is also available as an electronic file in XML – more precisely, as a document following a subset of the TEI recommendations11. This XML document is distributed with a license12 less restrictive than the present PDF document, allowing anyone to use the lexicon in derivative works, including translation, use in software, etc. For instance, one could develop a search engine similar to the one available on my web site, but intended to be used on a local computer, without requiring an access to the Internet. I am sure that dozens of other applications could be designed...
