Eldamo : Early Noldorin : tû

G. tû- v. “to get, receive, take; to become” (Category: to Get, Obtain)

A verb in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s glossed “receive; take; get; become” related to ᴱQ. tuvu- “receive” (GL/71), which in the contemporaneous Qenya Lexicon was glossed “receive, accept, take, require, cost” and was derived from the early root ᴱ√TUVU (QL/96). Early Noldorin word-lists of the 1920s had ᴱN. tú but without translation or any other indication of the nature of the word (PE13/154).

Neo-Sindarin: For purposes of Neo-Sindarin, I would instead use ᴺS. ged- “get”, ᴺS. cav- “receive”, ᴺS. nab- “take”, and ᴺS. ola- “become”.
