Eldamo : Primitive Elvish : KOT(H)

√KOT(H) root. “strive, quarrel”

√KOT(H) root. “strive, quarrel”

There is evidence that the later form of this root may have been √ÑGOTH. See ᴺ✶kottō for a discussion.

Another variation, √KHOT “be wroth, quarrel; hate” appears in notes on root formations (PE18/62, 85, 87), but its only derivative ✶ok(h)tā could just as easily come from √KOT(H).

In order to retain all the derivatives from the Etymologies, this entry assumes that the root form remains √KOTH.
