A word for “tall” as an epithet for Galdor, as in Galdor Orchal = “Galdor the Tall” (WJ/305 note #48). It also appeared as an element in the (untranslated) name Orchaldor (UT/210). In The Etymologies of the 1930s, N. orchall, orchal, or orchel was glossed “superior, lofty, eminent” as a combination of N. or- “above” and N. hall “exalted, high” (Ety/KHAL², ORO; EtyAC/KHAL², ORO). Christopher Tolkien noted that the e in orchel was uncertain, and Carl Hostetter and Patrick Wynne suggested that orchal was a possible reading, which is in better keeping with its Old Noldorin form ON. orkhalla.
Neo-Sindarin: For purposes of Neo-Sindarin, I would assume orchal “tall; [N.] superior, eminent, lofty” is a somewhat emphatic variant of N. hall “high; exalted” for things that are notably tall or noble.
