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).

A verb appearing as G. ulna- “ooze” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s (GL/74), clearly based on the early root ᴱ√ULU “pour, flow fast” from the contemporaneous Qenya Lexicon (QL/97). A rejected verb G. gul- “ooze, trickle” from earlier in GL is probably a precursor reflecting a different conception of the root: ✱ᴱ√ƷULU (GL/43).
Neo-Sindarin: Since √UL “pour” survives in Tolkien’s later writings, I retain but adapt this verb as ᴺS. olla- “ooze, trickle”, the likeliest result of Sindarin phonetic development from primitive ✱ulna-.
