A noun in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s said to be the equivalent of G. lûm [“time”] or G. olod [“tide”] as well as having the sense “weather” (GL/55). It was probably based on the early root ᴱ√LUHU which had various time-related derivatives (QL/56), since in GL is was grouped with other time-words.
