Khuzd pl. Khazâd was the Khuzdul word for the "Dwarves".
[edit] Etymology
The word comes from the Root Kh-Z-D; it is also visible in the words Khuzdul and perhaps Nulukkhizdîn.
[edit] Derivatives
The plural form Khazâd is the basis of Quenya casar and Sindarin hadhod.
The Adûnaic word hazad, meaning "seven", is presumably also related.
