√SWAL root. “wash” (Category: to Wash)
A root meaning “wash” appearing in Eldarin Pronouns, Demonstratives, and Correlatives (EP1) from the early 1950s (PE23/122). Compare with ᴱ√SOVO “wash” from the 1910s, and ᴹ√POY “*clean” from the 1930s.
Neo-Quenya: For purposes of Neo-Eldarin, I would use this root as the basis for “wash” as a verb, but retain ᴱ√SOVO >> Neo-Root ᴺ√SOW as the basis for “bath” nouns.
