N. atlant adj. “oblique, slanted” (Category: Slope, Cliff)

⚠️N. atlant, adj. “oblique, slanted” (Category: Slope, Cliff)
ᴺS. ^adlant “oblique, slanted”

An adjective in The Etymologies of the 1930s given as {tlant >>} N. atlant “oblique, slanted”, a derivative of the root ᴹ√TALAT “to slope, lean, tip” (Ety/TALÁT). It is not clear why the consonant did not undergo mutation to dl or gl, such as with ON. etlenna > N. eglenn (Ety/LED).

Neo-Sindarin: If you use this word for Neo-Sindarin, it would probably be best to reform it to ᴺS. adlant, as originally suggested in Hiswelókë’s Sindarin Dictionary.
