lepthadrin

adjective. fingered, of fingers

The word G. lepthadrin {“(finger-)ring” >>} “fingered, having fingers” appeared in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s, an adjectival form of G. leptha “finger” (GL/53). A similar form lepthindros appeared next to G. omlos “chestnut tree” (GL/62). Another adjective G. lemfadrin or lemfadhrin “of the finger” appeared near lepthadrin, this one also usable as a noun meaning “ring”, equivalent to G. lemfarilt “[finger] ring” (GL/53).

Neo-Sindarin: For purposes of Neo-Sindarin, I would adapt these words as ᴺS. leberen “fingered, of fingers”, an adjective form based on the 1968 word S. leber “finger”.
