sindarin_grammar1-3 Exercise 2: adan -> edain ============================================== Two changes happen together: 1. The interior a becomes e (a -> e in a non-final syllable). 2. The last syllable gets an intruded i: the a of -dan becomes ai, because the word ends in a single consonant. So adan -> edain, not edan (only the first change) or adain (only the second). dôr -> duir a one-syllable word with ô: ô -> ui cam -> cem a final m resists the intrusion, so only a -> e (The older proposal for dôr was a plural in y; the form with ui is the one now recommended.)
