- The Etymologies, I recon. It's the only root here with its own article; as it has no links, I really doubt its use. As it's a root, it's not used in any language an sich, but rather as a building block; e.g. Alagon in Ancalagon and a Common Eldarin alak-wâ became alqua and alph, "swan". -- Ederchil 03:55, 4 March 2008 (EST)
