S. adar n. “father” (Category: Father)
The Sindarin word for “father”, derived from the root √AT(AR) (PM/324; VT44/21-22; VT48/19).
Conceptual Development: N. adar “father” also appeared in The Etymologies of the 1930s as a derivative of the root ᴹ√ATA of the same meaning (Ety/ATA). In the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s, however, G. †ador “father” was marked as archaic, and it seems {athon >>} G. nathon was the ordinary word for ”father” (GL/17, 59).
