Indeed! I don't know how the need of a word for an index finger arose when JRRT was writing about the Teleri. If someone burned a fleet of your ships, you'd probably shake your fist rather than waggle your forefinger severely. But then, we're not elves.

1. Hama’s initial finale as a gardener’s son.
TASSA: French cup changes note for a Telerin digit.
3. Strange the Italian should merge in this elf.
AMARIE: One buttery biscuit that Finrod loved.
5. Near palindrome and heir apparent.
