rarum
It was Fangorn that used the words
burárum and
rárum, but I’m sure other ents must have muttered these syllables.
burárum is used for
orc, but the root
rárum was clarified by Treebeard to be ‘hewing (of trees)’..more specifically ‘wanton hewing without purpose’. Thus, his word for orcs translates something like ‘senseless tree destroyers’.
I’ve looked in other internet and printed sources for a better description of this word, but haven’t been able to find a discussion of it. If anyone knows of one, please post it here.
Your turn
galpsi. I think I need to quit for the evening. My questions are getting cryptic.
