G. hilm n. “posterity; one’s descendants, progeny, offspring” (Category: Descendant)

A noun appearing as G. hilm “posterity; one’s descendants, progeny, offspring” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s, derived from the early root ᴱ√χili and cognate to ᴱQ. hilmie (GL/49). The Qenya cognate was apparently a variant of ᴱQ. hilmi “family, offspring” from the contemporaneous Qenya Lexicon (QL/40).

Neo-Sindarin: I would adapt this word as ᴺS. hilf in Neo-Sindarin, since non-initial [m] usually became [v], which was spelled f at the end of words.
