ser-

verb. *to sew

A verb for “to sew” implied by the sobriquet Serindë “Broideress, Needlewoman, ✱Seamstress” of Míriel, mother of Fëanor (MR/257, PM/333). This verb is further supported by the root √THER or √SER “sew” which appeared in notes from 1957, with Tolkien preferring √THER (PE17/33).

Conceptual Development: The verb ᴱQ. neme- “I sew” appeared in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s under the early root ᴱ√NEME (QL/65), but there are no signs of it after the 1910s.
