G. piglin n. “urine” (Category: to Urinate; Urine)
A noun appearing as G. piglin “urine” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s (GL/64), probably based on the early root ᴱ√PIQI which had Quenya derivatives having to do with bitterness (QL/74).
Neo-Sindarin: I would update this word to ᴺS. saerlin “urine”, a combination of [N.] saer “bitter” (Ety/SAG) and the root √LIN which was sometimes connected to the sound of moving water (WJ/382).
