S. edaid adj. “double” (Category: Double, Twice)
The Sindarin word for “double” in notes from the late 1960s derived from primitive ✶atatya, an adjective form of the root √ATATA (VT42/26-27).
Conceptual Development: The Etymologies of the 1930s had N. tadol “double” under the root ᴹ√TATA “two”, an adjectival form of tâd “two” (Ety/TATA). This word reappeared in its mutated form dadol in notes on The Feanorian Alphabet from the 1930s and 40s in the term peg dadol “double dot” (PE22/31; PE23/22).
