A recent discussion on the "sindict" mailing list* raised the question
of whether the reading _mistrad_ given in _The Etymologies_ at V:373
s.v. MIS- might be an error. Having looked again at (my photocopy of)
the manuscript, and at some other, contemporary documents on Noldorin,
I can now say with high confidence that the correct reading is
_mistiad_.
So, as an addendum to my and Patrick Wynne's "Addenda and Corrigenda
to the _Etymologies_", Part One, in _Vinyar Tengwar_ 45, p. 35 s.v.
MIS- add:
"[for:] _mistrad_ [read:] _mistiad_."
