apacenyë

apacenyë
is translated "foresight" in MR:216; yet the context and the form of the word itself clearly indicates that it is not a noun but actually the pl. form of an adjective *apacenya "of foresight". The noun "foresight" is almost certainly *apacen; cf. tercen "insight". MR:216 The literal meaning of *apacen is *"aftersight", sc. knowledge of that which comes after. Essi apacenyë "names of foresight", prophetic names given to a child by its mother MR:216
