heth

noun. brother or sister

An archaic term (or possible a root) in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s for “brother or sister” [sibling] (GL/48). It is clearly related to the early root ᴱ√HESE in the Qenya Lexicon which has various “brother” or “sister” derivatives (QL/40). Its dual form hethwi appeared in the Gnomish Grammar with the gloss “a brother and sister” (GG/10).

hethir

A word for “sister” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s, a feminized form of G. heth “brother or sister, ✱sibling”, along with several (archaic) variant forms hethwin, hestril, and hethril (GL/48). It was ultimately derived from the early root ᴱ√HESE [HEÞE?] (QL/40).

hethos

noun. brother

A word for “brother” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s, a masculinized form of G. heth “brother or sister, ✱sibling”, along with several (archaic?) variant forms {hethweg >>} hethwig, hestron, and hethron (GL/48-49). It was ultimately derived from the early root ᴱ√HESE [HEÞE?] (QL/40).

hethrin

adjective. of the same family (in a close sense), consanguine

A word in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s glossed “of the same family (in a close sense), consanguine”, an adjectival form of archaic G. †heth “brother or sister” (GL/48). Tolkien specified that it described those “usually having both parents same, but also occasionally = having two grandparents alike”.

caf

noun. blade

cim

noun. blade

An (archaic) noun appearing as G. †cim “blade” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s (GL/26). The noun G. caf “blade” also appeared in the same document, but it was deleted (GL/24).

Neo-Sindarin: The root √KIM “edge, brink of” appeared in Tolkien’s writing of the 1960s, with derivatives like Q. címa “edge of a cutting weapon/tool” (PE22/149). Therefore, I think this Gnomish noun might be retained for purposes of Neo-Sindarin as ᴺS. cim “blade”, perhaps derived from primitive ✱kimbē. I would also assume this Neo-Sindarin word was not archaic.
