G. rin- v. “to revolve, return, come back; to do again” (Category: to Turn Around)
A verb appearing as G. rin- “(intr.) revolve, return, come back; do again” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s (GL/65), based on the early root ᴱ√RINI having to do with circles (QL/80).
Neo-Sindarin: The root ᴹ√RIN was still associated with circles in Tolkien’s later writings, so I would retain ᴺS. rin-, but only in the limited sense “to revolve” = “*to circle round”. For “return” I would use the later verb dandol-.
