gronoch

noun. acorn

A word in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s glossed “acorn”, a combination of G. grôn “oak” and G. nocha “an acorn” (GL/42, 62).

nocha

noun. acorn

A noun appearing as G. nocha “an acorn” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s (GL/61). It had no obvious Qenya cognate, so its derivation is unclear.

Neo-Sindarin: Since there are no later words for “acorn”, I would adapt this word as ᴺS. noch “acorn” for purposes of Neo-Sindarin.
