G. uthwen n. “escape, way out, exit” (Category: to Release)

Neo-Sindarin: For purposes of Neo-Sindarin, I would retain this noun as ᴺS. uthwen “way out, exit; escape”, but re-etymologized as a combination of the Neo-Root ᴺ√UTH “escape” with men “way”, with thm > thw and then the u preserved by the following w.
