verb.to fall in steep slant, incline, slope, to incline, slope, fall in steep slant
A strong verb in Sindarin given as ped- and presumably of the same basic meaning as its root √PED “fall in steep slant, incline, slope” (PE17/173). Its actual Sindarin form would be ✱pedh-, since [[s|[d] generally became [ð]]] in Sindarin. Tolkien also gave the verb penna- “come down in a slant, fall”, so it may be that ✱pedh- means only “incline, slope”.
