G. lenu- v. “to stretch, extend in length, trail; ?to approach” (Category: to Stretch)
A deleted verb from the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s glossed “to stretch, extend in length, trail” (GL/53), the equivalent of ᴱQ. lenu- “stretch” under the early root ᴱ√LENE “long” from the contemporaneous Quenya Lexicon (QL/53). In the Gnomish Lexicon, Tolkien also had G. lenu- as a possible equivalent to G. lentha- “approach”, but this second instance of lenu- was marked with a “?” (GL/53).
