norolle
noun. cart
The word ᴱQ. norolle appeared in the Gnomish Lexicon as the cognate to G. drogla “cart” (GL/31), clearly based on the early root ᴱ√NORO “run, go smoothly, ride, spin, etc.” (QL/67).
Neo-Quenya: The root √NOR was associated with both “run” and “roll” as late as 1948 (PE22/127), so I would retain ᴺQ. norollë “cart” for purposes of Neo-Quenya; see the discussion of √NOR for further details.
