S. haered n. “remoteness, (remote) distance” (Category: Far)

S. haered, n. “remoteness, (remote) distance” (Category: Far)
ᴱN. egos “distance”
G. lenchos “distance”

A word appearing in its mutated form chaered in the song A Elbereth Gilthoniel, in the phrase na-chaered palan-díriel “to lands remote I have looked afar” (LotR/238; RGEO/63). The actual meaning of this word is “remoteness” based on the adjective haer “remote” (PE17/25). In the literal translation of the A Elbereth Gilthoniel song, Tolkien gave it the gloss “remote distance” (RGEO/64).

Neo-Sindarin: For purposes of Neo-Sindarin, I would also use this word to mean “distance” in general.
