parakeet has just left Hobbiton.
vocabulary

I have kept a list of unusual vocabulary from LothR. Some of the words seem familiar, but not in the context. I read a 3 volume edition that may not match other people's copies. Does anyone know of a LothR vocabulary list or glossary? It seems that most such things are about 'elvish'. I am interested in the uncommon English words. Below is a few examples:
Volume 1
p.72 lor
90 brakes, ride
91 greensward
107 worriting
116 fell
120 spinney
128 dragonets
141 wights
157 damasked
181 pate

266 glede
306 doughty
369 bole
408 thrawn
417 wains
421 rowans
