Q. #rem- v. (basic-verb) “to snare” (Category: to Overtake)
A basic verb for “snare” appearing in its aorist stem form remi- in notes on The Rivers and Beacon-hills of Gondor from the late 1960s, a derivative of the root √REM “entangle, snare, trap (as hunters or fishers) with lines or nets” (VT42/12).
Neo-Quenya: For purposes of Neo-Quenya, I would assume the Quenya verb could also mean “*entangle, trap”. However, Tolkien may have intended this verb only to mean “*trap with a net”.
