In briefanswer capsule

In early Qenya, mordo denotes a fighting man or champion and is explained as adopted from Gnomish mord. Mord once signified a herdsman; after it left ordinary speech, verse usage extended it to man and fighter. Qenya’s own counterpart is listed as mavar with the herdsman sense. The same stem figures in Taimordo among Telimektar’s names and in Gnomish Daimord, earlier understood as herdsman of heaven.
