The Lost Road and vol. 9

The Lost Road has the Etymologies [70 or so pages of an Elvish dictionary of just pre-LotR vintage , and the Lhammas.The last of the HoME volumes treating of the LotR hasthe notion club papers with a major section on Aduniac [by report - I have yet to read much of Volumes 6-9].
Hope that helps.
One idea that I hope to emulate is to go through the index's of LotR/Silm. and UT and create a wordlist/dictionary and then slowly supplementing it w/ HoME [working backwards from 12 >5].
