G. tag- v. “to fix, make firm, construct” (Category: to Build)

A noun appearing as G. tag- “fix, make firm, construct” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s (GL/68) clearly based on the early root ᴱ√TAKA “fix, fasten” (QL/88).

Neo-Sindarin: I would retain ᴺS. tag- for purposes of Neo-Sindarin, but only in the senses “to fix, make firm, *fasten”. For “construct” I would use ᴺS. adaba- “build”.
