S. #tagol n. “post, mark” (Category: Beam)
A word attested only as an element in glandagol “boundary post or mark” in notes on The Rivers and Beacon-hills of Gondor from the end of the 1960s (VT42/8). Carl Hostetter suggested it and its Quenya cognate Q. talka could be derived from primitive *✶tak(a)la based on the root √TAK “fix, make fast” (VT42/28).
