S. gûr n. “heart (inner mind)” (Category: Mind)

S. gûr, n. “heart (inner mind)” (Category: Mind)

A word for “heart (inner mind)” in notes from the late 1960s, equivalent to Q. órë (VT41/11). In the original article published in VT41 in July 2000, Carl Hostetter gave its primitive form as ʒōrē, but in his later book The Nature of Middle-Earth published in 2021, he corrected this to gōrē (NM/219).

Conceptual Development: Early Noldorin word-lists from the 1920s had N. gir glossed “interior, centre, inwards, inner parts” (PE13/144) or “inwards, interior, inside, heart” (PE13/161).
