Etymology

Root: √NUR "growl, grumble, mumble"
nurā nura nora View phonetic development in Quettamorphosis

Notes

Based on the same root used for the Quenya verb "nurru-". I've added an -ā suffix to discern it from "nor-", meaning "to run". There are still some collisions, but I think it's acceptable and the true meaning can be based on context. This word is unlikely to get wide acceptance, but I don't know a better one.
