N. sûl n. “goblet” (Category: Cup)
A noun in The Etymologies of the 1930s glossed “goblet” derived from ᴹ✶suglu based on ᴹ√SUG, a variant of the root ᴹ√SUK “drink” (Ety/SUK).
Neo-Sindarin: The vocalization of combinations like ugl seems have changed in later Sindarin, so that more likely ugl > uil instead of ūl. However, I prefer to assume that there were dialectical variations in the phonetic developments among the ancient Sindar so Noldorin words like these can salvaged.
