ᴺS. [G.] ^porochuil n. “hen” (Category: Hen)

ᴺS. [G.] ^porochuil, n. “hen” (Category: Hen)
See G. porogwil for discussion.

Elements

porog “fowl (domestic), *chicken”
^huil² “hen”

G. porogwil n. “hen” (Category: Hen)

The word G. porogwil appeared in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s as a combination of G. porog “fowl (domestic)” and G. uil “hen” (GL/64, 74).

Neo-Sindarin: I would adapt this word as ᴺS. porochuil for purposes of Neo-Sindarin, updating the second element to the neologism ᴺS. huil “hen”. The longer form is better distinguished from ᴺS. huil “bitch, female dog”.
