N. dannen adj. “fallen” (Category: to Fall)
The passive participle of the verb N. dant- “fall” in The Etymologies of the 1930s under the root ᴹ√DA(N)T (Ety/DAT).
Neo-Sindarin: The later Sindarin form of the verb is danna- whose passive participle would ordinarily be dannannen; compare covannen the passive participle of cova- (PE17/158). But I think dannen “fallen” may remain viable as a reduction of dannannen. Another possibility is *dannan; compare the archaic passive participle of †covan(n) of cova- (PE17/158).
