Eldamo : Ilkorin/Doriathrin : go

Ilk. go prep. “from, away; patronymic” (Category: From, Away)

Ilk. go prep. “from, away; patronymic” (Category: From, Away)

A preposition “from, away” marked as both Ilkorin (Ety/ƷŌ̆; PE21/60) and Doriathrin (EtyAC/ƷŌ̆). It developed from primitive ᴹ✶ʒō̆ (Ety/WŌ), with the initial [ɣ] becoming [g]. It was also used as patronymic, as in go-Thingol “*child of Thingol” (Ety/ƷŌ̆).

Conceptual Development: This preposition may be a restoration of the Gnomish patronymic G. go-².
