Translation

Aglon does NOT mean "narrow". The word for narrow is "agor". The article anyway should be moved together with the Anach article. --Thalion 16:55, 7 September 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

No, these articles shouldn't be merged, as they are clearly referring to two different passes (see Map of Beleriand and the Lands to the North; Aglon located to the east of Ered Gorgoroth and Anach to the west of Ered Gorgoroth). Concerning the translation of Aglon: the name is given the translation "The Narrow Pass" in the Index to The Silmarillion (Robert Foster writes "S.: 'narrow pass'", The Complete Guide to Middle-earth, p. 3).--Morgan 18:31, 7 September 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
