A word in The Etymologies of the 1930s appearing as N. lhae “great number” derived from primitive ᴹ✶lai- which was an a-fortified form of the root ᴹ√LI “many” (EtyAC/LI).
Neo-Sindarin: Many Neo-Sindarin writers adapt this word as ᴺS. lae “great number” for purposes of Neo-Sindarin as suggested in HSD (HSD), since the unvoicing of initial l to lh was a feature of Noldorin of the 1930s but not Sindarin of the 1950s and 60s.
Conceptual Development: Early Noldorin word-lists of the 1920s had {lhî “folk” >>} ᴱN. lhí “many, a number” from primitive ᴱ✶lē (PE13/148).
