⚠️ᴱN. gwedhw, n. “matrimony” (Category: Wedding, Marriage)
ᴺS. !best “marriage, matrimony, wedlock, ⚠️wedding”

A noun in Early Noldorin Word-lists of the 1920s for “matrimony” based on the 1920s root for marriage words: ᴱ√wed- (PE13/146). In the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s there was an archaic word G. †bedhwen for “matrimony”, a combination of the 1910s version of the root ᴱ√Beđ- with the noun suffix G. -wen (GL/22). It had a longer (non-archaic) variant G. govedhwen with the prefix G. go- “together”.
