See: http://www.meanspc.com/~jeff_wilson63/myths/BabelTarot.html particularly the translations of The One Ring and Babel text verse 6.

In the GA all symbols can carry a wide variety of meanings, with the specific interpretation dependent on grammatical markings. For example, the glyph 'dark' can mean "dark" as an adjective, "to prevent from seeing" as a verb, "the darkness" as a noun, or many other possibilities. -- Jefferson http://www.picotech.net/~jeff_wilson63/myths/
