rem

noun. mesh, net (for catching)

A noun for “mesh” appearing in a footnote in Lord of the Rings appendices as the basis of Remmirath “Netted Jewels” and the plural adjectival element remmin in galadhremmin “tree-tangled, tree-meshed” (LotR/1115). In notes on The Rivers and Beacon-hills of Gondor from 1967-69 Tolkien translated this word as “net (for catching)” (VT42/12) or “a hunter’s or fisher’s net” (VT42/29), derived from the root √REB or √REM “entangle, snare, trap” (VT42/12).
