A word for “fireplace, hearth” in 1964 notes on Dalath Dirnen (DD) derived from the root √RUYU “blaze, red” (PE17/183).
Conceptual Development: The Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s had G. tangar or tangor “hearthgrate, fireplace” based on the early root ᴱ√tan- (GL/69). Gnomish Lexicon Slips modifying that document had G. bordd [borð] “fireplace” related to primitive ᴱ✶búrı̯ā (PE13/116). Early Noldorin Word-lists of the 1920s had ᴱN. {borth, bordh “hearth” >>} gorth “hearth, fireplace” (PE13/139, 145).
