aith

noun. thorn

aithos

noun. thorn bush

A noun appearing as G. aithos “thorn-bush” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s, a combination of G. aith “thorn” and G. tath “hedge”, derived from primitive ᴱ✶eχt·taþ· (GL/18). This word also appeared in Gnomish Lexicon Slips modifying that document (PE13/108).

Neo-Sindarin: I would adapt this word as ᴺS. eithos “thorn bush” for purposes of Neo-Sindarin, since the diphthong ai was ei in non-final syllables in Sindarin of the 1950s and 60s. I would re-etymologize this word as a combination of the later words [N.] êg “thorn” (< √EK) and [N.] toss “bush”, where primitive ekt- became eith-.

aithr

noun. thorn, †sword

pibinaith(ros)

noun. hawthorn

A word for “hawthorn” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s, apparently a combination of G. pibin “small berry, haw” and a variant of G. aithos “thorn bush” (GL/64). Another word of “hawthorn” in this document was G. tadhos (GL/68).

tadhos

noun. hawthorn

A noun appearing as G. tadhos “hawthorn” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s, an elaboration of G. tath (tadh-) “hedge” based on the early root ᴱ√tadh- (GL/68).

Neo-Sindarin: I would retain ᴺS. tadhos “hawthorn” based on an updated Neo-Root ᴺ√TAD “enclosure”; see that entry for details.
