Early Noldorin

drauth

noun. labour

A word appearing in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s as the adjective G. drauth “weary, toilworn, tired”, related to G. drab “labour, toil” (GL/30). ᴱN. drauth also appeared in Early Noldorin Word-lists of the 1920s, where its gloss has a couple hard-to-read letters, but it seems to be the noun “labour” (PE13/142).

Neo-Sindarin: I’d retain this word for purposes of Neo-Sindarin based on the Neo-Root ᴺ√(D)RAP, but I’d use it with its 1910s meaning ᴺS. drauth “weary, toilworn, tired” since this is part of a more complete paradigm.
