draug

noun. wolf

A noun for “wolf”, most notably appearing as an element in the name of the great werewolf S. Draugluin. In The Etymologies of the 1930s, N. draug “wolf” was derived from the root ᴹ√DARAK (Ety/DARÁK).

draug

noun. wolf

draugluin

masculine name. *Blue (Were)wolf

The great werewolf servant of Sauron who was slain by Huan (S/174). His name appears to be a combination of draug “(were)wolf” (SA/draug) and luin “blue”.

Conceptual Development: The name ᴱN. Draugluin first appeared in the Lays of Beleriand from the 1920s where it was glossed “werewolf pale” (LB/205), so that at this stage its second element might have been a variant of ᴱN. lhui “pale” (PE13/149), also appearing later as Ilk. luin “pale” (Ety/LUG²). The name N. (or Ilk.?) Draugluin appeared in Silmarillion drafts from the 1930s glossed only as “Werewolf” (LR/134), so the intended meaning of the name after Tolkien abandoned the Ilkorin language is unclear.

suith

noun. draught

gaur

noun. werewolf

A noun for a “werewolf” (PE17/39; PE19/107; SA/gaur; Ety/ÑGAW), as opposed to a more ordinary wolf which would be [N.] garaf or draug. In The Etymologies of the 1930s, N. gaur was derived from the root ᴹ√ÑGAW “howl” (Ety/ÑGAW), and a similar derivation appeared in the Outline of Phonology (OP2) from the 1950s (PE19/106-107), but in notes on Words, Phrases and Passages from the Lord of the Rings from the late 1950s or early 1960s, Tolkien said the meaning of its root was “falsify, deform, disguise” (PE17/39).

yll

noun. draught

A neologism for “draught” coined by Ryszard Derdzinski in PPW (PPW) from the early 2000s, based on Q. yulda. I prefer ᴺS. suith “draught, a drink”, but ᴺS. yll might be preferable if you think Tolkien abandoned the root √SOK/SUK “drink”.

suith

draught

*suith (i huith, o suith), no distinct pl. form except with article (i suith). Suggested Sindarin form of ”Noldorin” sûth.

dangen

adjective. slain

An adjective for “slain” derived from primitive ✶dankĭna (PE17/133), best known from its (mutated plural) appearance in the name Haudh-en-Ndengin “Hill of Slain” (S/197). N. dangen “slain” also appeared in The Etymologies of the 1930s under the root ᴹ√NDAK “slay” (Ety/NDAK). This adjective is likely the passive participle of the verb dag- “to slay”.

Conceptual Development: A similar adjective ᴱN. danc “killed in battle” appeared in the Early Qenya Phonology of the 1920s, also related to ᴱN. dag- “slay” (PE14/66).
