yur-

verb. run

yur- vb. "run" (quoted in form yurin, translated "runs", but within Tolkien's later framework it looks like a 1st person aorist "I run")-QL:106 (cf. entry YUR in Etym)

yur-

verb. to run

A neologism for “run” appearing in ABNW (ABNW) from the early 2000s based on the root ᴹ√YUR “run” from The Etymologies of the 1930s. I think it is better to use attested nor- “run”, published in 2007 after the neologism ᴺQ. yur- was defined.

Beware, older languages below! The languages below were invented during Tolkien's earlier period and should be used with caution. Remember to never, ever mix words from different languages!

Gnomish

lob-

verb. to run, gallop (of animals)

The Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s had a verb G. lob “run, gallop (of animals)” with a past form lompi (GL/54), clearly the equivalent of ᴱQ. lopo- of the same meaning in the contemporaneous Qenya Lexicon under the early root ᴱ√LOPO (QL/56).

Neo-Sindarin: Derivatives of √LOP continued to appear in Tolkien’s later writings, such as N. lobor “horse” and Q. lopoldë “rabbit”. I would therefore retain ᴺS. lob- to describe the four-legged run of these and similar animals, meaning “gallop” or “lope”.

yur

root. run

A root in The Etymologies of the 1930s glossed “run” with derivatives like ON. yur- “run” and N. iôr “course” (Ety/YUR). It was a later iteration of ᴱ√ẎURU “run” from the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s with derivatives like ᴱQ. yuro “a run, race” and ᴱQ. yuru- “run” (QL/106). For purposes of Neo-Eldarin, it is probably better to stick to the better attested root √NOR.
