N. gwî n. “net, web” (Category: to Wind, Wrap)
A noun in The Etymologies of the 1930s glossed “net, web” under the root ᴹ√WEY “wind, weave” (Ety/WEY).
Conceptual Development: The Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s had G. gwith “net” based on the early root ᴱ√gwidh- “weave”, with an alternate form gwinn (GL/46).
Neo-Sindarin: In Tolkien’s later writings the root for “weave” became √WIR or √WIG, so I think this Noldorin word is not salvageable. For purposes of Neo-Sindarin, I would use N. nath for “web” and S. rem for “net”.
