G. gwingli n. “loom” (Category: Loom)
The Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s had G. {gwindel, gwingl >>} gwingli and (archaic) †gwidhr for “loom” based on the early root ᴱ√gu̯iđ (GL/46).
Neo-Sindarin: This early root fell out of use in Tolkien’s later writings. The Etymologies of the 1930s had ᴹQ. lanwa “loom” under the root ᴹ√LAN “weave” (Ety/LAN), so I’d coin a word ᴺS. lanu “loom” to replace the probably-abandoned Gnomish words.
