nuinë

nuinë
noun "river of large volume, and liable to flooding". The word is said to be archaic, surviving chiefly in topographical names. It comes from earlier duine, hence appearing in that form in a name like Nunduinë VT48:30-31, apparently also Anduinë q.v. Tolkien struck out the paragraph where nuinë occurs, but the names Nunduinë/Anduinë would suggest that the word as such is conceptually valid.
