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!
Early Quenya
hont
noun. sneeze
A noun appearing as ᴱQ. hont (honty-) “sneeze” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s derived from the early root ᴱ√HOTYO of the same meaning (QL/50).
Neo-Quenya: I’d retain this word as ᴺQ. hont “sneeze” for purposes of Neo-Quenya, based on a Neo-Root ᴺ√HOT, but without the more elaborate stem form. Note that -nt remained a valid (but rare) final consonant cluster in Tolkien’s later conception of Quenya.
saiwa
adjective. hot
sausa
noun. bath water, hot water
A noun appearing as ᴱQ. sausa in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s glossed “bath water, hot water” derived from the early root ᴱ√SOVO or ᴱ√SOW̯O “wash” (QL/86). Very likely the ancient *ou* became *au* as was the usual phonetic development in Qenya of the 1910s and 20s.
Neo-Quenya: I retain ᴺ√SOW “wash” for purposes of Neo-Quenya, so I would adapt this word as ᴺQ. súsa “bath water, hot water” using the later sound change of *ou* to *ū*. To explain the intervocalic s, I assume the archaic form of this noun was southā; compare G. soth “bath”.
sahta-
verb. it is hot
saiwa-
verb. ?to be hot
torqa
adjective. blazing hot
úrin
adjective. (blazing) hot
Early Primitive Elvish
hotyo
root. sneeze
A root in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s glossed “sneeze”, with various Early Qenya derivatives of similar meaning (QL/41). Since there are no good later words meaning “sneeze”, I think it is worth retaining ᴱ√HOTYO as a Neo-Eldarin root ᴺ√HOT in order to salvage these Early Qenya sneeze-words.
sah(y)a
root. be hot
A root given as ᴱ√SAHA or ᴱ√SAHYA and glossed “be hot” in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s, with derivatives like ᴱQ. sá “fire” and ᴱQ. Sahóra “the South” (QL/81). It also had derivatives in the contemporaneous Gnomish Lexicon such as G. sâ “fire” and G. sair “hot” (GL/66). There are no signs of this root in Tolkien’s later writing.
Gnomish
sair
adjective. hot
gudhrin
adjective. inflamed, burning hot
A word in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s glossed “inflamed, burning hot”, an adjectival form of G. gudhri “inflammation; conflagration” (GL/42).
gudh-
verb. to be hot (intr.)
tanfa
proper name. lowest of all airs, hot air of the deep places
urin

Middle Primitive Elvish
barasā
adjective. hot, burning
ur
root. be hot
This root was connected to “heat” for most of Tolkien’s life. It first appeared as unglossed ᴱ√URU in the Qenya Lexicon of the 1910s, with derivatives like ᴱQ. úrin “(blazing) hot”, ᴱQ. uru “fire”, G. urin “hot, very hot”, and G. urna- “blaze, burn” (QL/98; GL/75). In this early period it was blended with the root ᴱ√UŘU with variant ᴱ√USU which had derivatives like ᴱQ. urna “oven” and ᴱQ. usta- “burn” (QL/98). This second root had derivatives in the contemporaneous Gnomish Lexicon such as G. gund “boil, pus” and gusta- “burn, destroy” from primitive ✱gudh (GL/42), indicating the actual root form was ✱ᴱ√ƷUÐU.
✱ᴱ√ƷUÐU seems to have been abandoned in Tolkien’s later writings, but ᴹ√UR “be hot” appeared in The Etymologies of the 1930s with derivatives like ᴹQ. úr/N. ûr “fire” and ᴹQ. urya- “blaze” (Ety/UR). This entry was deleted and replaced by ᴹ√UR “wide, large, great”. This was likely a transient change, however, as ᴹQ. Úrin as a name of the Sun remained in contemporaneous Silmarillion drafts (LR/240). Indeed primitive √UR appeared several times in later writings as the basis for words for “sunlight”, “fire” and “heat” (PE17/120, 148; PE21/71; PE22/160).
