ᴱQ. nark n. “spiteful remark, snap of a dog” (Category: Shame)

A word appearing as ᴱQ. nark “spiteful remark, snap of a dog” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s under the early root ᴱ√ŊARA “bite at” (QL/64).

Conceptual Development: The later Sindarin word S. narch “bitter-biting” hints that this early word might remain conceptually valid. I would therefore retain this noun as ᴺQ. narcë “rend, tear”, with extended meanings “snap of a dog; spiteful remark” for hurtful sounds based on the root ᴹ√NARAK “tear, rend (tr. and intr.)”; compare also [ᴹQ.] naraka “violent (?of sounds)” from that same root.
