bar-in-mŷl

place name. Home of the Gulls

Name of cape southwest of Eglarest, also known as Ras Mewrim (WJ/190, WJ/379). The initial element of the name is bâr “home”, the second element is the plural in of the definite article i “the” and the final element is the plural mŷl “gulls”.

Conceptual Development: This name was earlier given as Bar-in-Gwael (WJ/418). In one place it was changed in pencil to Bar-i-Mŷl, a more accurate rendering of the result of nasal-mutation of the plural definite article in before m (WJ/418); hat-tip to Vyacheslav Stepanov for this suggestion.
