G. rib n. “shore; stripe, line; border, fringe” (Category: Line)

A word in the Gnomish Lexicon appearing as G. rib along with the equivalent word G. rim¹ “a stripe, line; border, fringe”, but rib had the added meaning “shore” (GL/64). These were clearly based on the early root ᴱ√rib [RIPI] (GL/64; QL/80).

Neo-Sindarin: I would retain ᴺS. rib for purposes of Neo-Sindarin based on the Neo-Root ᴺ√RIP, but only for the senses “stripe, line”.
