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

fath

noun. tassle

A noun appearing as G. fath or fass “tassel” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s, cognate to ᴱQ. fatse (GL/34).

Neo-Sindarin: I’d use the form ᴺS. fass “tassel” for purposes of Neo-Sindarin for better compatibility with the later Quenya form [ᴹQ.] fas (fass-) “fringe”, and I would further assume it was derived from the 1930s root ᴹ√PHAS having to do with shaggy or tangled hair (Ety/PHAS).

fath

noun. possession, property; rights, legality

fathli

noun. tasselled fringe

A noun appearing as G. fathli “tasselled fringe” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s, an elaboration of G. fath/fass “tassel” (GL/34).

Neo-Sindarin: I’d adapt this word as ᴺS. fathol “(tasselled) fringe” for purposes of Neo-Sindarin based on ᴺS. fass “tassel” from primitive ✱phasḷ, where the th arose from ancient sl becoming thl, after which the syllabified to ol.

fathrin

adjective. tasselled

A word appearing as G. fathrin “tasselled” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s, an adjectival form of G. fath/fass “tassel” (GL/34). There was a similar adjective G. fathwed “tasselled” written above it.

Neo-Sindarin: I’d adapt this word as ᴺS. fathren “tasselled” for purposes of Neo-Sindarin based on ᴺS. fass “tassel”, where ancient sr become thr.

fathwed

adjective. tasselled

bâb

noun. father

A word for “father” in the Gnomish Lexicon Slips (PE13/111). In the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s itself, G. babi or baba was “mummy, mamma” (GL/21, 57). As pointed out by Gilson, Welden, Hostetter and Wynne, there is a complementary change of {nân “father” >>} G. nân “mother” elsewhere in the Gnomish Lexicon Slips (PE13/115).

nathanwi

noun. fatherhood

A word for “fatherhood” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s replacing rejected {athonri}, an elaboration of of G. {athon >>} nathon “father” (GL/17, 59).

(n)adi

noun. father, daddy

eithog

noun. ancestor, †father, sire

A word for “ancestor” in the Gnomish Lexicon Slips of the 1910s with variants eithog or eithweg, and an original meaning of “†father, sire” (PE13/113). Tolkien indicated the variant eithog was derived from ᴱ✶attū + ōka, where the first element clearly means “father” and the second element is probably some kind of ancient masculine or agental suffix because (a) that is consistent with G. -weg in the other variant and (b) G. -og was often an agental suffix in the Gnomish Lexicon. However, it is not at all clear how ᴱ✶attū became eith-.
