LIR root. “sing, warble”

LIR root. “sing, warble, [ᴹ√] trill”
*ᴱ√N(D)ALA “ring, play”

A root connected to singing for all of Tolkien’s life (Ety/GLIR, LIR¹; PE17/27, 67), though its earliest precursor was ᴱ√LIŘI [LIÐI] and thus did not contain the consonant R (QL/54). For further discussion, see √LIN “sing, make a musical sound”.
