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!

Early Quenya

londa-

verb. to boom, bang

A verb appearing as ᴱQ. londa- “to boom, bang” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s as a derivative of the early root ᴱ√LOŘO [LOÐO] (QL/56).

Neo-Quenya: Since the root √(S)LON was used for noise words in Tolkien’s later writings, I think this verb might be adapted into Neo-Quenya as ᴺQ. hlonta- “to boom, bang, make (loud) noise”.
