Gnomish

lib-

verb. to drip

A verb appearing as G. lib- “to drip” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s (GL/54), clearly based on the early root ᴱ√LIPI as suggested by Christopher Tolkien (QL/86; LT1A/limpë).

Neo-Sindarin: For purposes of Neo-Sindarin, I would adapt this verb as ᴺS. liv- “to drip”, based on the later root ᴹ√LIB “drip”.
