neuma
noun. snare, snare, *noose
A noun in The Etymologies of the 1930s glossed “snare” under the root ᴹ√SNEW “entangle” (Ety/SNEW).
Neo-Quenya: Its Noldorin cognate was also glossed “noose”, so that meaning might apply to neuma as well; this would help distinguish it from later remma “snare” which had more to do with nets.
