ᴺS. [ᴱN.] ^tehar n. “brick” (Category: Brick)
Cognates
ᴱN. teiar n. “brick” (Category: Brick)
A word appearing as ᴱN. teiar “brick” in Early Noldorin Word-lists from the 1920s, derived from primitive ᴱ✶tesare (PE13/153). The middle i is seems to be the result of some vocalization of ancient s > h.
Neo-Sindarin: In later Sindarin, intervocalic s > h usually vanishes, but occasionally survives if it separates otherwise awkward vowel combinations, as in ahamar “neighbor” or arahadhw “throne”. Thus I would adapt this early word as ᴺS. tehar “brick”. However, tëar is also possible; compare [N.] noen < *nusina (EtyAC/NUS).
