ephed-

verb. to say out, to say out; [ᴺS.] to confess

A verb meaning “say out” in notes from around 1959 derived from [AT.] et-pet (PE17/167). Tolkien said this same form could theoretically be derived from ancient [AT.] ✱✱en-pet “✱say again”, but the root √EN was not used in the Sindarin language branch.

Neo-Sindarin: In a 2024-09-14 post on the Vinyë Lambengolmor Discord Server (VLDS), Luinyelle suggested this word might also mean “confess” as with its (Neo-Quenya) cognate ᴺQ. etequet-.
