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!
An unglossed suffix in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s, final element of G. grosgen “soil”, and cognate to ᴱQ. kēmi “earth, soil, land” (GL/42), and so probably derived from the root ᴱ√KEME “soil” (QL/46).
