2 FINE FLOUR
mulma –QL:63 -
3 FINE RAIN
rossë (dew, spray) –ROS cf. Letters:282 -

5 THREAD
(fine) lia (spider filament. Note: lia- is also the verb "twine".) –SLIG -
6 PIERCING
maica (sharp), terevë (fine, acute), laica (keen, sharp, acute). (The printed Etymologies has a final –e instead of –a, but according to VT45:25 this is a misreading. A word laike = laicë does appear in the source, but this is the noun corresponding to laica: "acuteness, keenness of perception". The conceptual validity of both laica and laicë with these meanings may however be questioned, since laica is the adjective "green" in later sources: laicë would then be expected to mean *"greenness".) FINE PIERCED HOLE terra –Silm:434, LT1:255, LT2:337, LAIK, VT46:18 -
7 RAIN
mistë (fine rain), rossë (fine rain, dew, spray), ucco; RAINBOW helyanwë (lit. "sky-bridge"), Ilweran, Ilweranta. (LT2 has iluquinga "sky-bow", but this was obsoleted together with ilu "sky"; see SKY.) –MIZD, ROS cf. Letters:282, GL:74, 3EL, LT1:256, LT2:348 -
8 ACUTE
tereva (fine, piercing); ACUTE, ACUTENESS laicë (In the printed Etymologies, a similar word is also the adjective "keen, sharp, acute", but according to VT45:25, this is a misreading; the final vowel of the adjective should be -a, not -ë. However, the conceptual validity of the adjective laica, and therefore also the corresponding noun laicë, is questionable; see PIERCING.) –TER, LAIK -
9 DEW
rossë (fine rain, spray), rin. DEWY nítë (stem *níti-) (moist) –ROS/Letters:282, LT1:265, NEI -

(a single hair) finë (*fini-) (larch).TANGLED HAIR fassë; LOCK OF HAIR findë (defined as "a tress or plait of hair" in PM:345; LT2:341 has findl, an impossible form in LotR-style Quenya), HEAD OF HAIR, A PERSON'S HAIR AS A WHOLE findessë. The conceptual status of the noun loxë "hair" listed in the Etymologies is uncertain; this word is assigned the meaning "bunch, cluster" elsewhere. –PM:362, PHAS, SPIN, PM:345, LOKH -
12 HOLE
ecca, latta (pit – Note: a homophone means "strap"), assa (perforation, opening, mouth), terra (fine pierced hole), unquë (hollow). –PE17:188, DAT, GAS, VT46:18, VT46:20 -
