1 CHIEF
(adj) héra (principal); CHIEF (noun) \#turco (isolated from Turcomund "chief of bulls, *chief bull"; this may not be pure Quenya, but Turco appears as a the short name of Turcafinwë, Celegorm's Quenya name – though that is translated "strong, powerful (in body)" rather than referring to more "political" power) –KHER, Letters:423, PM:352 -
2 CHIEFTAIN
(or CHIEF, VT45:17) haran (stem harn-, as in pl harni) (in Etym also = king, but in LotR and other texts the Quenya word for "king" is aran pl. arani – see KING), cáno, cánu (see COMMANDER) (ruler, governor, commander) –3AR, UT:400 -
3 COMMANDER
cáno ("usually as the title of a lesser chief, especially one acting as the deputy of one higher in rank", PM:345) (governor, chieftain) –PM:345, VT45:19 -
4 FIST
quár, quárë (often used to mean "hand"). "Its chief use was in reference to the tightly closed hand as in using an implement or a craft-tool rather than the 'fist' as used in punching" (VT47:8). In compounds –quar: Telperinquar = Sindarin Celebrimbor, "Silver-Fist, Hand of Silver". The first version of the stem KWAR yielded quár pl. quari. –KWAR, Silm:429/387 -
