A verb appearing in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s as G. braitha- “wrap, swathe” based on G. brach “a shawl, plaid, wrap” (GL/23). The form ᴱN. braith also appeared in Early Noldorin word lists of the 1920s (PE13/139), but it was unglossed and whether it was related is unclear.
Neo-Sindarin: Since I retain ᴺS. brach “shawl, wrap”, I’d also keep this Gnomish verb as a derivative of the Neo-Root ᴺ√BARAK “wrap”, but updated to ᴺS. braetha- “to wrap, swathe” since ai became ae in Sindarin of the 1950s and 60s.

The word for “cheese” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s was G. cûr, related to G. caura “sour (of milk)” and derived from the early root ᴱ√TYURU “curdle” (GL/26, 28; QL/50). In Gnomish Lexicon Slips added to that document, “cheese” was instead cír from primitive ᴱ√tyus, with an alternate form cur written in pencil above it (PE13/113). In Early Noldorin Word-lists of the 1920s, “cheese” became ᴱN. corn from primitive ᴱ✶kyurna (PE13/140).
Neo-Sindarin: Of these, I prefer ᴺS. cûr for “cheese”, since ᴱN. corn “cheese” collides with later N. corn “round”. I assume ᴺS. cûr is derived from a Neo-Root ᴺ√KYUR “curdle”, perhaps from primitive ✱kyūrŭ.
