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!
There were various words for “hoard” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s, all based on the early root ᴱ√foχo and related to ᴱQ. foa “hoard, treasure” (GL/36; QL/38). Of these, only G. fuis and G. fûn were retained, the latter with a variant fufuin. Tolkien had fû “hoard”, but this was revised to fuis. Tolkien also had {fûl >> fund >>} fûn, and {fûlin or fûlim >>} fûn. On another page he had G. fô or fôtha “a hoard”, but these were revised to G. fô “snow” and G. fôtha “it snows” respectively (GL/35). Before their change in meaning, these last two were connected to (rejected) G. fâ- “have, hold, possess” (GL/33).
