S. #lîr n. “line” (Category: Line)

S. #lîr, n. “line, [N.] row” (Category: Line)

A word for “line” implied by S. aeglir “line of peaks” as in Hithaeglir “Line of Misty Peaks” (RC/11; SA/hîth). The Etymologies of the 1930s had N. lhîr “row” under the root ᴹ√LIR² (Ety/LIR²), with the unvoicing of initial l as was normal in Noldorin of the 1930s but not Sindarin of the 1950s and 60s.
