fwegra-
verb. to sweep
A word appearing as G. fwegra- “sweep” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s, a verb form of G. fweg “broom” (GL/36).
Neo-Sindarin: The fw- in G. fwegra- is likely the result of ancient sw-, so I would adapt this word as ᴺS. whegra- “to sweep” for purposes of Neo-Sindarin since sw- became hw- in Sindarin of the 1950s and 60s.
