ᴹ√EDE(L) root. “precede, come forward, hence”

⚠️ᴹ√EDE(L) root. “precede, come forward, hence”
DEL¹ “walk, go, proceed, travel”
MIN “one, first of a series; [ᴹ√] stand alone, stick out”

A rejected root in The Etymologies of the 1930s glossed “precede, come forward, hence” providing an etymology for the words for Elf (Ety/EDE). The rejected Noldorin form N. Edhel may have been an early attempt to revise N. Eledh “Elf”, which in Sindarin became S. Edhel < √DEL (WJ/363-4). As such, this root may have been an early iteration of √DEL “walk, go, proceed, travel”.
