tag-

verb. to fix, to fix, *fasten, [G.] make firm, construct

This verb appeared in some rough notes from around 1969 in various past forms such tanc “fixed”, tancher/tanker “they fixed” and tanchen “I fix” (PE23/138 note #12). See the discussion of the Sindarin past tense for more detail on these past forms. The verb ✱tag- is clearly based on the root √TAK “fix, fasten”.

Conceptual Development: The verb G. tag- “fix, make firm, construct” appeared in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s (GL/68), likely based on the early root ᴱ√TAKA “fix, fasten” (QL/88).

Neo-Sindarin: For purposes of Neo-Sindarin, I would use tag- only in the later sense of its root: “to fix, ✱fasten”. For “make firm” I would use [N.] tangad(a)- and for “construct” I would use [ᴱN.] adaba- “build”.

panya-

verb. to fix, set, to fix, set; [ᴱQ.] to plan, arrange, intend, mean

A verb in The Etymologies of the 1930s glossed “fix, set” under from the root ᴹ√PAN “place, set, fix in place” (Ety/PAN).

Conceptual Development: The verb ᴱQ. panya- “plan, arrange, intend, mean” in Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s was based on the similar the early root ᴱ√PANA “arrange” (QL/72).

Neo-Quenya: Since √PAN also meant “arrange” in Tolkien’s later writings, I would use panya- for both “fix, set” and “plan, arrange”, but for “intend, mean” I would instead use ᴺQ. selya-.
