ᴹQ. laime n. “shadow (cast by an object or form), shade” (Category: Shade, Shadow)

⚠️ᴹQ. laimë, n. “shadow (cast by an object or form), shade” (Category: Shade, Shadow)
Q. hala “cast shadow, *shade”

A noun in The Etymologies of the 1930s variously glossed “shade”, “shadow (cast by an object or form)”, and “shadow cast by a thing” under different iterations of the root ᴹ√DAY “shadow” (Ety/DAY; EtyAC/DAY). This root was primarily used for N. dae “shadow” in N. Dor-Daedeloth “Land of the Shadow of Dread”; in later writings the Dae- element in that name seems to have become dae(r) “great” (WJ/183), so I suspect ᴹ√DAY “shadow” and its derivatives were abandoned.
