rocleM Melkor (spelt Melcor in MR:362), the rebellious Vala, the devil of the Silmarillion mythos. Older form Melkórë "Mighty-rising" (hence the interpretation "He that arises in power"). Oldest form *mbelekôro (WJ:402). Melkorohíni "Children of Melkor", Orcs ("but the wiser say: nay, the slaves of Melkor; but not his children, for Melkor had no children") (MR:416)

rodlen neldor "beech" (LT2:343)

rodn -ndor "land" in compounds (Letters:308, UT:253)

rogni ingor "summit of a mountain" (PM:340)

roip pior ??? (Narqelion)

rol lor- "to slumber" (LT1:259; the corresponding abstract noun lórë "slumber" is attested in mature Quenya, so this verb must still be valid). Cf. also lor "dream" (Letters:308; probably just an Elvish "element" rather than a complete word)

roll -llor ending for plural ablative; also -llon

rolo olor "dream", noun (LOS, ÓLOS, LT1:259 [the latter source also gives olórë]); perhaps changed by Tolkien to olos, q.v.

rolos solor "surf" (SOL); solor, solossë "surf, surge" (LT1:266)

rom mor "darkness" (Letters:308; probably just an Elvish "element" rather than a complete word; Namárië has mornië for "darkness")

ronaemól… Taurelilómëa-tumbalemorna Tumbaletaurëa Lómëanor "Forestmanyshadowed-deepvalleyblack Deepvalleyforested Gloomyland", Quenya elements agglutinated in Entish fashion; this supposedly means something like "there is a black shadow in the deep dales of the forest" (LotR2:III ch. 4; translated in Appendix F under "Ents"; cf. also Letters:308)

ronanrA Arnanor, Arnanórë "Arnor", Royal Land (so #arna = "royal"?) (Letters:428)

ronayriF Firyanor = Hildórien, the place where mortal men first awoke, like the Elves did at Cuiviénen (PHIR)

ronilaV Valinor "the land (or people) of the Valar", *"Vali-land" (Vali = Valar), land of the Gods in the West (BAL, NDOR); cf. Valandor. Full form Valinórë (BAL; Vali-nórë under NDOR) In the early "Qenya Lexicon", Valinor, Valinórë is glossed "Asgard", the name of the city of the gods in Norse mythology (LT1:272). Possessive (here object genitive) Valinóreva in Nurtalë Valinóreva, the "Hiding of Valinor" (Silm).

rovurim miruvor, full form miruvórë "meed", "a special wine or cordial"; possessive miruvóreva "of meed" (Nam, RGEO:66; WJ:399) In the "Qenya Lexicon", miruvórë was defined "nectar, drink of the Valar" (LT1:261).

rú úr "fire" (UR) This stem was struck out in Etym, but a word that must be derived from it occurs in LotR, so it seems that Tolkien restored it. Early "Qenya" also has Ûr "the Sun" (also Úri, Úrinci ("k"), Urwen) (LT1:271). Cf. Úri.

rud -dur see -ndur

rudleneM Meneldur masc. name, *"Heaven-servant" (Appendix A)

rudlisI Isildur (masc.name., *"Moon-servant") (SA:sil, Appendix A, NDÛ)

rudn -ndur (also -dur) ending in some names, like Eärendur; as noted by Christopher Tolkien in the Silmarillion Appendix it has much the same meaning as -ndil "friend"; yet -ndur properly means "servant of" (SA:(n)dil), "as one serves a legitimate master: cf. Q. arandil king's friend, royalist, beside arandur 'king's servant, minister'. But these often coincide: e.g. Sam's relation to Frodo can be viewed either as in status -ndur, in spirit -ndil." (Letters:286)

rudnalaV Valandur masc. name, *"Vala-servant" (Appendix A)

rudnelE Elendur masc. name, *"Star-servant", probably intended to mean *"Elf-servant"; in effect a variant of Elendil (Appendix A)
