laba-

verb. to hop

A verb for “hop” extracted from the name S. Labadal “Hopafoot” (UT/60). Compare also G. laboth “rabbit” from the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s, cognate of ᴱQ. lapatte (GL/52). This was in turn derived from primitive ᴱ✶lapatte in the contemporaneous Qenya Lexicon (QL/51), and thus ultimately connected to the root √LOP. S. laba- “hop” may also be based on a variant of this root.

Doriathrin

gangel

noun. harp

A noun meaning “harp” derived from the root ᴹ√ÑGAN(AD) (Ety/ÑGAN), probably from a primitive form ✱✶ngandellē based on its Quenya cognate ᴹQ. nandelle. Its plural form genglin is a good representation of the rules for plural nouns in Ilkorin: the suffix -in, the syncope of the final vowel and mutation of other vowels. It is also an example of how primitive [[ilk|[nd] sometimes became [ŋg]]] in Ilkorin. As suggested by Helge Fauskanger, this may be due to assimilation to the preceding [g] (AL-Ilkorin/gangel).
