ᴹQ. kuluma n. “orange [fruit]” (Category: Fruit)

ᴹQ. culuma, n. “orange [fruit]” (Category: Fruit)

A word for “an orange” (thus referring to the fruit) in The Etymologies of the 1930s derived from the root ᴹ√KUL “golden-red” (Ety/KUL).

Conceptual Development: There was a noun ᴱQ. kulmarin (kulmarind-) “orange” in both the Qenya Lexicon and Poetic and Mythological Words of Eldarissa of the 1910s, a combination of ᴱQ. kulu “gold” and ᴱQ. marin “fruit” (QL/49; PME/49). There was also a noun ᴱQ. {kulumin >>} kulurin glossed “a piece of gold; orange” in the Qenya Lexicon (QL/49) but simply “orange” in Poetic and Mythological Words of Eldarissa (PME/49); the second element might be from ᴱ√RINI “*circle”.
