G. eleg adj. “other, else” (Category: Different, Other)
A word appearing as G. eleg {“single, only, unique” >>} “other, else” in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s based on G. el “or” (GL/32).
Neo-Sindarin: Elaran suggested updating this word to ᴺS. egel based on the later root √HEK “separate” and inspired by S. egor “or”. Elaran gave egel the gloss “other”, and I would also use it for “an other” or “another” for purposes of Neo-Sindarin. Roman Rausch instead suggested ᴺS. eithor “other, another” based on S. eithro “also”.
