Beware, older languages below! The languages below were invented during Tolkien's earlier period and should be used with caution. Remember to never, ever mix words from different languages!

Early Primitive Elvish

pumu

root. *bubble

A root in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s with variants ᴱ√PUMU and ᴱ√PUPU, apparently with meaning similar to ᴱ√PULU “swell”, having derivatives ᴱQ. pumpo “bubble; bladder; blister” and ᴱQ. pumpole “bubble” (QL/75). There are no signs of this root in Tolkien’s later writing, and for Neo-Eldarin I prefer to use ᴺ√WEL for “bubble” words.
