Q. eäron n. “ocean, great sea” (Category: Sea)

Q. eäron, n. “ocean, great sea” (Category: Sea)

A word appearing as eäron “ocean” (PE17/27) and Eären “Great Sea” (PE17/27; PM/363). I prefer the first as a more obvious augmentative form, a combination of ëar “sea” with the augmentative -on.

Conceptual Development: A form ᴹQ. earen appeared in The Etymologies of the 1930s as a parenthetical form beside ᴹQ. ear “sea”; this might be a genitive form, but I suspect it is an early appearance of earon/earen “ocean” instead.
