ᴹ√PHI root. “?hawk”
An unglossed root in The Etymologies of the 1930s serving as the basis for the name ᴹQ. Fionwe, but the gloss of the element ᴹQ. fion is barely legible, and could be either “haste” or “hawk” according to Christopher Tolkien (Ety/PHI). According to Carl Hostetter and Patrick Wynne, the reading “hawk” is more likely (EtyAC/PHI).
