Appendix:Sindarin/annabon

Sindarin

Etymology

Only attested in Tolkien’s earlier conception of the language (‘Noldorin’). Diegetically explained as inherited from Primitive Elvish *andambundā, synchronically equivalent to and (“long”) +‎ bond (“snouted”), and so cognate to Quenya andamunda.

Noun

annabon • 5{#w#5^ (plural ennebyn)

1. elephant
