In Response To: "mith" (Doom)

: ...Point taken, but...

: My source was the little english tolkien(ish?) dictionary

: something that was originally part of it...
: If it is just the publisher's, it might be wrong. If I am
: wrong, then sorry about this argument... Force of
: habit, I guess. Comes from all those "parental
: discussions," maybe.

: -Doom ?

Well, if you look in that little dictionary under "ril", you get "silver" and the example of mithril is used explicitly as meaning "Moria-silver". Just thought I'd throw that in.
