An archaic term (or possible a root) in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s for “brother or sister” [sibling] (GL/48). It is clearly related to the early root ᴱ√HESE in the Qenya Lexicon which has various “brother” or “sister” derivatives (QL/40). Its dual form hethwi appeared in the Gnomish Grammar with the gloss “a brother and sister” (GG/10).
