G. thar- v. “to saw (up)” (Category: Saw)

A verb appearing as G. thar- “saw (up)” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s (GL/72), likely based on the early ᴱ√SARA “saw” (QL/82). The Gnomish word indicates an actual root form of *ᴱ√ÞARA.

Neo-Sindarin: The root √THAR means “across” in Tolkien’s later writings, but I think ᴺS. thar- “to saw (up)” is still salvageable from an original sense of “*(cut) across”.
