It’s a preposition and I don’t feel obligated to document it, since Richard Blackwelder did not in the original research which I’m following, but it’s a lovely snowy Monday and so I felt up to it. Almost two hundred uses, which seems low for such a useful word. We already have After-Supper (which I thought was a JRRT word in translation from Westron, but OED corrects me) and Afterthought.

• 1.004 (especially after dinner,

• 5.111 after all these ages
• 5.112 After a while Gollum stopped weeping

• 8.103 after the hobbit
• 8.111 though it was not clear what would happen after that.
• 8.125 But after a time the light began to fail,
• 8.125 about himself after all,
• 8.126 and after a while they all fell silent again.
• 8.126 Long after the others had stopped talking
• 8.131 and after the coming of Men they took ever more

• 9.001 The day after the battle with the spiders
• 9.009 After all the disturbance you have made
• 9.012 day after day,’
• 9.013 after a week or two of this sneaking sort of life,
• 9.013 and after a time he got to know his way about very well.
• 9.013 and after a while he found that his guess was right.
• 9.013 At last after many difficulties he managed to find the place
• 9.030 At last after much blundering
• 9.031 whatever happens after this.
• 9.039 Only a minute or two after Balin’s lid had been fitted on
• 9.050 one after another,
• 10.001 After a while the river rounded a steep shoulder of land
• 10.005 After a while, however,
• 10.010 after they had gone
• 10.011 it’s yours after all
• 10.012 so after a few more groans he got up
• 10.027 after our long road
• 10.039 and even after that his speeches at banquets were limited to
• 10.043 after all really a descendant
• 11.006 after winding a wide loop over the valley of Dale,
• 11.025 And winter comes after autumn,’ said Bifur.
• 11.026 And next year after that,’ said Dwalin,
• 12.008 After a while Balin bade Bilbo ‘Good luck!’
• 12.012 At any rate after a short halt go on he did;

• 12.036 After that of course
• 12.078 After he had seen that
• 12.078 after a long start.
• 12.079 for the dragon spouted terrific flames after him,
• 12.085 if that is what he is after,’
• 12.093 and now perhaps because he is waiting till after tonight’s hunt,

• 14.039 that now hurried after autumn,
• 14.039 although it was then only the third day after the fall of Smaug.

• 15.020 after the long desolation;
• 15.033 and the others after gazing for a while at the Gate
• 16.012 and for a soft bed after a good supper!’
• 16.017 and the road after a while,
• 16.021 they asked one after another.
• 16.025 that some two hours after his escape from the Gate,
• 16.041 after all we have gone through together.
• 17.022 That shall follow after,
• 17.035 so after angry words the dwarf-messengers retired
• 17.044 and they hastened night after night through the mountains,
• 17.061 after all one has gone through.
• 17.064 line after line,
• 18.003 After a while as his head cleared a little,
• 18.004 Victory after all,
• 18.008 This invisibility has its drawbacks after all.
• 18.014 Alive after all –
• 18.021 All that had happened after he was stunned,
• 18.031 May it bring good fortune to all his folk that dwell here after!’
• 18.042 and their hearts looked forward after winter to a spring of joy.
• 18.054 So comes snow after fire,
• 19.008 or for many after.’
• 19.018 After a week,
• 19.027 After that their going was slower,
• 19.037 and they were not on friendly terms with Bilbo ever after.
• 19.038 It is true that for ever after he remained an elf-friend,
• 19.039 was ever after more musical than it had been
• 19.046 after a fashion!’
• 19.047 in a wide world after all!’

Apparently the merging of Old English folgian and fylgan, which is just fine because each of those came from the same root in Germanic, rather like one person splitting into two ghosts upon death, neither of whom can resolve until they re-merge. I have no idea where that notion came from, but believe me, it’s going right into my current story.

“Follow, V.” Oxford English Dictionary, Oxford UP, December 2024, https://doi.org/10.1093/OED/3260024005.

• 1.028 When the silence that followed had become uncomfortable,
• 2.111 They followed the tracks up the hill,
• 3.009 Altogether it was a very slow business following the track,
• 3.010 and they followed his lead,
• 3.050 and with a knowledge of the road they must follow
• 4.036 that followed were beyond description.
• 4.038 Follow me quick! said a voice fierce
• 4.044 in the tunnel they were following;
• 5.038 “
It comes first and follows after, “
• 5.108 then very cautiously he followed.
• 5.108 Perhaps if he followed him,
• 6.012 You shouted ‘follow me everybody!’
• 6.012 and everybody ought to have followed.
• 6.020 Then I followed him,
• 6.028 He followed after the drivers
• 6.067 at either hand leaped up to follow him.
• 7.012 which we should have been following,
• 7.045 Following him they found themselves
• 7.075 I followed down into the main hall,
• 7.087 and followed immediately after the other two.
• 7.117 I followed these as far as the Carrock.
• 7.117 By that time it was too late for me to follow them far.
• 7.125 and they followed round the house.
• 7.130 Had they followed the pass,
• 8.007 as days followed days,
• 8.029 was getting ready to follow,
• 8.035 in the following days.
• 8.103 They followed him
• 8.123 and followed them no more,
• 9.013 and following the guards
• 9.025 He followed the two elves,
• 9.028 You just follow me!
• 9.029 until his following had grown to twelve –
• 9.035 So following the hobbit,
• 9.053 “
Follow, follow stars that leap “
• 9.053 “
Follow, follow stars that leap “
• 10.003 which the dwarves had followed
• 10.028 Follow me then,’
• 11.008 They did not dare to follow the river
• 11.012 followed ever by croaking crows above them,
• 11.014 Following these excitedly he
• 13.047 Let us follow it!’
• 13.063 Let us follow Balin’s path!’
• 14.036 and go North with any that will follow me.’
• 14.038 and in the days that followed
• 15.005 but I cannot follow the speech of such birds,
• 15.033 and its defences soon followed them.
• 17.022 That shall follow after,
• 17.055 and his companions followed him.

A Germanic word (to no one’s amazement), the adjective full came first back in the Old Germanic days, and thus fill: to make full.

• 1.001 filled with the ends of worms
• 1.010 and have a fill of mine!
• 1.036 to the cellar to fill a pint beer-mug,
• 1.072 The dark filled all the room,
• 1.142 and filled all his spare-rooms
• 3.034 Their bags were filled with food
• 4.004 and the darkness is filled with overwhelming noise
• 5.038 And empty holes it fills.
• 5.130 filled with hatred
• 6.065 and the commotion they made filled all the forest.
• 6.069 was filled with curiosity
• 7.031 and out filled all the air.
• 7.045 and filled with the light of the westering sun which slanted into it,
• 7.096 with their wooden drinking-bowls filled with mead.
• 7.143 but to fill their water-skins
• 7.154 because they were really filled with dismay
• 8.008 and filled some of their emptied skins at its bank.
• 8.036 was a poor exchange for packs filled with food however heavy.
• 8.039 filled almost entirely with a mighty growth of oaks.
• 8.071 and their songs were filled with mirth.
• 8.072 and the wood was filled again with their clamour
• 9.005 and filled with a cleaner air.
• 9.053 Where the berry swells and fills
• 10.002 filled with the waters of the river which broke up
• 10.006 filled with deep waters
• 10.007 and some were filled with gold
• 10.008 and all that land would be filled with new song
• 10.009 and others they would fill with goods
• 10.028 looking at long tables filled with folk.
• 11.011 all the halls within must be filled with his foul reek.’
• 12.014 and vessels filled with a wealth that could not be guessed.
• 12.015 His heart was filled
• 13.034 The dark hall was filled with a melody
• 14.011 in the town was filled with water,
• 14.035 and filled with golden bells,
• 14.040 The air was filled with circling flocks,
• 16.036 It was as if a globe had been filled with moonlight
• 17.046 and filling them with dread.
• 18.018 Bilbo knelt on one knee filled with sorrow.
• 18.037 one filled with silver,
• 19.043 and the desolation was now filled

Surprisingly few instances of the word hole, a Germanic word related to hollow. (“Hole, N.” Oxford English Dictionary, Oxford UP, December 2024, https://doi.org/10.1093/OED/7802432469.)

Yet, we already have Air-hole: click for a brief discussion of its hyphennatedness or not.

And Hobbit-hole: naturally a JRRT-invented word, complete with hyphen in its translation from Westron, therefore its own separate word.

And Key-hole: click for discussion of its hyphen. Do you see what I see? Did JRRT indeed use keyhole and key-hole as separate words? If you write the paper, send me the link!

There’s Porthole: not hyphenated.

And Rabbit-hole: hyphenated or not, click for discussion and reference.

And finally Smoke-hole, hyphenated just so in OED.

So, were air-hole and key-hole and rabbit-hole hyphenated in The Hobbit to evoke earlier spellings, earlier times? or to indicate translation artifacts?

• 1.001 In a hole
• 1.001 Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole,
• 1.001 nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole
• 1.109 but Smaug could not creep into a hole that size,

• 5.087 in a hole
• 6.050 near Mr. Baggins’ hole at home,
• 6.053 like a rabbit that has lost its hole
• 6.100 in his own little hole at home.
• 7.045 and the hole above it,
• 7.116 and setting them at last chasing one another out of the hole
• 8.001 Soon the light at the gate was like a little bright hole far behind,
• 8.004 who liked holes to make a house
• 9.038 to close holes
• 9.049 roll-roll-rolling down the hole!
• 11.032 A hole appeared suddenly about three feet from the ground.
• 11.037 He put it to the hole.
• 11.038 from the hole
• 12.020 Could there be a draught from that little hole?
• 12.021 in vain at the little hole,
• 13.056 timeless hole?’
• 13.058 Don’t call my palace a nasty hole!
• 15.028 There were holes
• 18.051 and hidden in the deepest holes they could find;

Look at the distribution of this one! Definitely something going on! Digital humanities students, there is definitely something going on here: I wanna see your paper.

• 5.038 And empty holes it fills.

A subtle sense but a common word. And we all know what “an oozy smell” smells like!

• 1.001 and an oozy smell,

• 2.113 and a nasty smell was

Well goodness. About a hundred and twenty uses of feel including felt which is definitely not used in the sense of a type of cloth, I did check. Definitely of Germanic roots, related to fumble, and — how cool is this? — to the Gothic word for astonished. There’s a possible relation to the Latin word pollex meaning thumb.

18.048 I mean even a burglar has his feelings.

• 1.009 or that you feel good this morning;

• 2.001 and yet in a way he could not help feeling
• 2.001 The feeling surprised him.
• 2.027 but still he began to feel that adventures were not so bad after all.
• 2.116 By that time they felt like breakfast,

• 5.002 for he could feel inside that it was high time for some meal or other;
• 5.004 After some time he felt for his pipe.
• 5.004 Then he felt for his pouch,
• 5.004 Then he felt for matches
• 5.004 Still at the moment he felt very crushed.
• 5.004 and feeling all round himself for matches

• 6.088 Now I know what a piece of bacon feels like

There are nearly two hundred instances of can, can’t, cannot in our text, so I’ve chosen not to list them here. From Germanic roots and back to Proto Indo European, it meant primarily to know and the sense of to know how led to our most common meaning, to be able. But, dang, check this out:

But as far as I can tell, it is all the same word high which JRRT uses, meaning both far from bottom to top and elevated in social stature — even “5.002 for he could feel inside that it was high time for some meal or other”.
