Early Primitive Elvish

gwini

root. sparkle

A root in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s with variant forms ᴱ√GWIMI and ᴱ√GWINI and glossed “sparkle” (QL/104). They had derivatives in both Qenya and Gnomish such as ᴱQ. wimpele “a twinkling”, ᴱQ. wintil “a glint”, G. gwim “a spark, wink”, and G. gwinc “a spark, flash” (QL/104, GL/45). There are no signs of these roots in Tolkien’s later writing.
