N. thrib- v. “to scratch” (Category: to Carve)

⚠️N. thrib-, v. “to scratch” (Category: to Carve)
ᴺS. ^rhib- “to scratch”

A verb in The Etymologies of the 1930s appearing in its (Noldorin) infinitive form N. thribi “to scratch” derived from the root ᴹ√SRIP of the same meaning (Ety/SRIP).

Neo-Sindarin: I would adapt this verb as ᴺS. rhib- “to scratch” for purposes of Neo-Sindarin, as suggested in Hiswelókë’s Sindarin Dictionary (HSD), since primitive sr became voiceless rh in Sindarin of the 1950s and 60s.
