sweke Speculative
root. broom
ᴱ√SWEKE is a hypothetical root underlying Gnomish “sweep” and “broom” words like G. fweg and G. fwegra- (GL/36), where sw > fw as usual in Gnomish. I would retain this as a (Sindarin-only) Neo-Root ᴺ√SWEK “broom” to salvage these Gnomish words, adapting them with fw >> hw to better fit Sindarin phonology.
fweg
noun. broom
A noun appearing as G. fweg “broom” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s (GL/36).
Neo-Sindarin: The fw- in G. fweg is likely the result of ancient sw-, so I would adapt this word as ᴺS. hweg “broom” for purposes of Neo-Sindarin since sw- became hw- in Sindarin of the 1950s and 60s.
