Qerkaringa The first element is obscure; for -ringa see Ringil.
Qorinуmi See p. 227. The root is QORO/QOSO, whence qoro- ‘choke, suffocate’, qorin ‘drowned, choked’, etc.
Rбna Not in QL, but GL has Rвn ‘the Moon (Q. Rбna)’ and ranoth ‘month’ (Ranoth was a rejected name preceding Ranuin, p. 222). In the text (p. 192) it is said that the Gods named the Moon Rбna.
Ranuin See Rбna
Ringil QL gives ringa ‘damp, cold, chilly’, ringwл ‘rime, frost’, rin ‘dew’; GL rо ‘coolness’, ring ‘cool, cold, a sudden breeze or cold breath’, and (a later addition) Ringli ‘the arctic colds, the North Pole (see the tale of the Coming of the Ainur)’. Cf. Qerkaringa.
Rъmil This name is not found in either dictionary, but seems likely to be connected with words given in GL: rы and ru
Salmar This name must belong with derivatives of the root SALA salma ‘lyre’, salmл ‘harp-playing’, etc.
Samнrien (‘The Feast of Double Mirth’1, p. 143.) Presumably derive from the root MIRI ‘smile’ sa- is referred to in QL as an ‘intensive prefix’. Cf. Vansamнrin.
Sбri Not in either dictionary, but in QL the root SAHA/SAHYA yields sв ‘fire’, saiwa ‘hot’, Sahуra ‘the South’ GL has sв ‘fire’ (poetic form sai), sairin ‘fiery’, saiwen ‘summer’, and other words.
Sil Under the root SILI QL gives a long list of words beginning with Sil ‘Moon’ and all with meanings of whiteness or white light, but neither Silpion nor Silmaril occurs in it. In GL Sil ‘properly="Rose" of Silpion”, see Tale of the Making of the Sun and Moon, but often used poetically = Whole Moon or Rвn’. In this tale (p. 215) it is said that the fairies named the Moon ‘Sil, the Rose’ (earlier reading ‘the silver rose’).
Silindrin The ‘Moon-cauldron’ does not appear in either dictionary; the nearest form is Silindo in QL, which is a name of Jupiter. See Sil.
Silmarilli See Sil. In GL the equivalent of ‘Q. Silmaril’ is silubrill- (silum(b)aril-), plural silubrilthin (which occurs in the text, p. 138); a later addition compares brithla ‘pearl’, Qenya marilla (not in QL). The Tower of Pearl was named in Gnomish Tirimbrithla.
Silmo See Sil. In QL Silmo is translated ‘the Moon’, and in GL Silmo is given as the Gnomish equivalent of Qenya Silmo.
Silpion See Sil. The Gnomish names are Silpios or Piosil, but no meaning is given.
Silubrilthin See Silmarilli.
Sirion QL root SIRI ‘flow’, with derivatives sindi ‘river’ (cf. Kelusindi) sirл ‘stream’, sнrima ‘liquid, flowing’. In GL are given sоr ‘river siriol ‘flowing’, and Sirion (poetic word) ‘river, properly name of the famous magic river that flowed through Garlisgion and Nantathrir’ (Garlisgion ‘the Place of Reeds’ survived in Lisgardh ‘the land of reeds at the Months of Sirion’, Unfinished Tales p. 34. Cf. Sirnъmen, and the name it replaced, Numessir.
Sirnъmen See Sirion, Nъmл.
Solosimpi QL gives Solosimpл ‘the Shoreland Pipers’, of which the first element is from root SOLO: solmл ‘wave’, solor, solossл ‘surf, surge’ (cf. Solуrл name of Уnen), and the second from SIPI ‘whistle, pipe’: simpa, simpina ‘pipe, flute’, simpisл ‘piping’, simpetar ‘piper’. In GL the Gnomish name of the Solosimpi is Thlossibin or Thlossibrim, from thloss ‘breaker’, with a variant Flossibrim. The word floss is said to have been formed from thloss by influence of flass ‘seamarge, surf; margin, fringe’.
Sorontur Derived from a root SORO ‘eagle’: sor, sornл ‘eagle’, sornion ‘eyrie’, Sorontur ‘King of Eagles’. For -tur see Meril-i-Turinqi. The Gnomish forms are thorn ‘eagle’, thrond ‘(eyrie), pinnacle’, Thorndor and Throndor ‘King of E1agles’.
Sъlimo In QL under the three root-forms SUHYU, SUHU, SUFU ‘air, breathe, exhale, puff’ are given sы ‘noise of wind’, sъlimл ‘wind’, and Sъlimi, -o ‘Vali of Wind="Manwл" and Varda’. This probably means that Manwл was Sъlimo and Varda Sъlimi, since Varda is called Sъltha ‘blow (of wind)’, but Manwл’s wind-name is Saulmoth (saul ‘a great wind’), which is said to be an older form of later Solmoth; and this‘="Q." Sъlimi. GL has sы ‘noise of wind’, sъltha ‘blow (of wind’, but Manwл’s wind-name is Saulmoth (saul ‘a great wind’), which is said to be an older form of later Solmoth; and this ‘="Q." Sъlimo’.
