Cf. nárë "flame"), nasar (adopted from Valarin; used in Vanyarin Quenya only); RED [HEAT?] (Tolkien's handwriting was illegible) yulmë (Note: a homophone means "drinking, carousal".)

4 COPPER
urus (urust-), cf. POLISHED COPPER calarus (calarust-). In the Etymologies, the word rauta was originally defined "copper", but Tolkien changed the definition to "metal" in general.
