G. hal(a)- v. “to drag, draw, pull” (Category: to Draw, Pull)
A verb in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s glossed “drag, draw, pull, (espec. draw home, pull towards oneself, draw on or over, of clothes, etc.), slip on” (GL/47). Its derivation is unclear, since the only similar early root in the contemporaneous Qenya Lexicon is ᴱ√HALA whose derivatives had to do with leaping (QL/39).
Neo-Sindarin: For purposes of Neo-Sindarin, I would instead use the neologisms ᴺS. log- “to haul, drag” and ᴺS. thag- “to draw, pull”; see those entries for details.
