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!

Gnomish

drog

noun. slave, thrall, servant

drogla

noun. cart

A word appearing as G. drogla “cart” in the Gnomish Lexicon with cognate ᴱQ. norolle (GL/31), and thus based on the early root ᴱ√NORO “run, go smoothly, ride, spin, etc.” (QL/67).

Neo-Sindarin: The root √NOR was associated with both “run” and “roll” as late as 1948 (PE22/127), so I would retain this word but adapt it as ᴺS. drogol “cart” for purposes of Neo-Sindarin. For a similar development, compare N. draug “wolf” < ᴹ✶d’rāk based on ᴹ√DARAK (Ety/DARÁK), but in the case of ✱n’rok-lǝ there is the additional sound change of initial nr- becoming dr-.

harw

noun. wolf

ulug

noun. wolf

urc

noun. wolf

A noun for “wolf” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s (GL/75), likely related to ᴱQ. ulku “wolf” from the contemporaneous Qenya Lexicon derived from the early root ᴱ√ULUKU (QL/97). In the Qenya Lexicon Tolkien gave the Gnomish form as ulug, but in the Gnomish Lexicon the gloss of G. ulug was changed {“wolf” >>} “dragon” (GL/74).
