A name used by the Ents to refer to juvenile members of their own kind.At the time of the War of the Ring,due to the loss of the Entwives,there had been no new Entings for centuries.
Ents :
A race of giant,tree-like people whose purpose was to protect the forests of Middle-earth.By the end of the Third Age,the great forests had dwindled and so had the Ents but they were still to be found in Fangorn Forest.
Entwives :
The mates of the Ents,who had their gardens in the regions later known as the Brown Lands.When Sauron blasted that region,the Entwives escaped into the wilds of Middle-earth and were lost to the Ents (or so the Ents themselves believed).
