BTW: Where did you get this word from? [I surely hope it has something to do with Tolkien's book(s)and I'm sure it might be 'cause you said it might be from the Hobbit].
Yes- I just reread the Hobbit this year, having not read (or have it being read to me) it since- I don't know, Kindergarden, First Grade (?), and noticed the amount of times Tolkien uses the word. Having not heard it before, and not knowing that I could ask the question ont he BDs [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img] I assumed it was a Tolkien-word, and never even thought of using a dictionary.
