Ráca is a Quenya word for wolf, actually, so the savage definition is not far off. Maybe Tolkien saw the Finnish word and thought it would make a nice word for wolf. He did make Quenya to sound like Finnish.
Dunwen - Glad to see ya! Great post. And not to be nit-picky, but I think the corsair archers were in a line on deck, not in the masts. I think Arry called it a firing line in one of his posts. And it'd be a rather dangerous keeping lit braziers in the rigging.
