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!
A root in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s given as unglossed ᴱ√RAŘA [RAÐA], with derivatives like ᴱQ. randa “bark; peel, rind” and ᴱQ. rara- “scrape, peel, strip” (QL/79). There are no signs of this root in Tolkien’s later writing.
