Meaning of word
I'm not a linguistic expert but it seems like the definition given on this page is incorrect. Gwael is an undefined element in Bar-in-Gwael which later became Bar-in-Mŷl which means Home of the Gulls. The assertion that gwael means gull is based upon the assumption that when Tolkien changed the name, the meaning stayed the same. Eldamo attests it as "?wind", guessing it is related gwae meaning wind. Eldamo - gwael —Unsigned comment by Éowyn (talk • contribs).
- True, this is wrong. I'd delete it all together, removing whatever links here. --LorenzoCB (talk) 16:41, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
