Gnomish

hest

noun. brother or sister, *sibling; †consanguinity

A word appearing as G. hest in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s for “brother or sister” [sibling], but “properly consanguinity, the relationship of brother and sister, or brother and brother, etc.” (GL/48); this original meaning seems to be archaic, transferred to G. hestri or G. gochestri. This word is derived from the early root ᴱ√heth (GL/48).

Neo-Sindarin: For purposes of Neo-Sindarin, I would retain the word ᴺS. hest as a derivative of the Neo-Root ᴺ√KHETH to serve as a gender-neutral term for “sibling”.
