Engels - Quenya 'R'.

RACE nórë (land, country, dwelling-place, nation, native land, family) -NÔ
RADAGAST Aiwendil ("Lover of Birds", his original Valinorean name, not an actual translation of "Radagast", which is either Adûnaic for "Tender of Beasts" or a Mannish name of uncertain meaning). -UT:393/417, cf. 390, 401
RADIANCE alcar, alcarë (brilliance, splendour), fairë (Note: this word has several other meanings - see DEATH, FREEDOM, PHANTOM), nalta (glittering reflection - alata in Silm:433 is the Telerin form. In PM:347, nalta is spelt with initial ñ, that is, ng. Initial ng had become n in Third Age Quenya, and I follow the system of LotR and transcribe it accordingly. But if this word is written in Tengwar, the initial n should be transcribed with the letter noldo, not númen.) RADIANT alcarinqua (glorious) -AKLA-R, PHAY, PM:347, WJ:369 (where alcar, alkar is translated "splendour")
RAGE aha -LotR:1157
RAIN mistë (fine rain), rossë (fine rain, dew, spray), ucco; RAINBOW helyanwë (lit. "sky-bridge"), Ilweran, Ilweranta. (LT2 has iluquinga "sky-bow", but this was obsoleted toghether with ilu "sky"; see SKY.) -MIZD, ROS cf. Letters:282, GL:74, 3EL, LT1:256, LT2:348

RAPID larca, alarca -LAK
RAT *nyaro ("nyano" in LR:379 must be a misreading) -NYAD
RAVINE axa (narrow path), yáwë (cleft, gulf), falqua (cleft, mountain pass) -AK, LT2:341
RAY OF LIGHT alca; RAY OF THE SUN firin (the latter may not be a valid word in mature Quenya) -AKLA-R, LT2:341
"RAYMENT, VEILS" fana (pl fanar is attested. This word was used of the visible bodies in which the Valar presented themselves to incarnates.) -RGEO:74
RE- (prefix) en- (as in entulessë "return" and envinyatar "renewer", q.v. Also used on verbs: #enquat- "refill" [only fut. enquantuva is attested, see REFILL]. Before the consonants l, m, r, s, the prefix en- would be assimilated to *el-, *em-, *er-, and *es-, respectively. Very early [The Lost Tales] "Qenya" has an- instead of en- [see LT1:184].)
REACH *rahta- (strech out) (Corrected from the actual reading rakta; Tolkien later decided that kt became ht in Quenya) -LT1:335
REAL anwa (actual, true) -ANA2
REALM arda (region). This word means "any more or less bounded or defined place, a region" (WJ:402). Arda (with a capital A) was "the name given to our world or earth...within the immensity of Eä". -3AR, Letters:283

RED FLAME rúnya, WITH ADORNMENT OF RED JEWELS carnimírië (a pl form? Sg *carnimírëa? Letters:224 has carne- instead of carni-.) -KARÁN/Silm:429, GAY, NAR, WJ:399, YUL, Silm:437, LotR:505 cf. Letters:224
REED liscë (sedge) -LT2:335 (GL:34 also gives feng-, but some ending would be required)
REEK usquë -USUK
REFILL #enquat- (only fut. enquantuva is attested, but cf. quat- "fill" in WJ:392) -Nam
REFLECTION (glittering) nalta (radiance - alata in Silm:433 is the Telerin form. In PM:347, nalta is spelt with initial ñ, that is, ng. Initial ng had become n in Third Age Quenya, and I follow the system of LotR and transcribe it accordingly. But if this word is written in Tengwar, the initial n should be transcribed with the letter noldo, not númen.) -PM:347

Note that Úlairi is not a literal translation of "ring-wraiths"; the prefix ú- may mean "un-" with evil connotation; the rest of the word is obscure. Lairë "summer" or "poem" can hardly have anything to do with #lairi. The syllable úl- may also have something to do with the Black Speech word gûl, wraith.) -LotR:989 cf. Letters:308, LotR.1146, Silm:362, 417

ROARING (adj) rávëa; ROARING NOISE rávë (pl. probably *ráver not *rávi, compare the similar formation tyávë "taste" pl. tyáver). -MC:223 cf. 215
