pân

noun. plank, fixed board (especially in a floor)

A noun from The Etymologies of the 1930s glossed “plank, fixed board, especially in a floor” derived from ON. pano < ᴹ✶panō under the root ᴹ√PAN “place, set, fix in place (especially of wood)” (Ety/PAN).

Conceptual Development: The Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s had G. thrad “a plank, board, shelf” (GL/73), clearly related to ᴱQ. sarat “plank” from the contemporaneous Quenya Lexicon under the early root ᴱ√SARA [ÞARA] (QL/82). The word thrad also appeared elsewhere in the Gnomish Lexicon with just the glosses “a board, shelf”, but this other entry was deleted (GL/72).
