A word meaning “hidden”, often interpreted as element in the name Gondolin “Hidden Rock”, whose actual meaning was “Singing Stone” (SA/gond). In The Etymologies of the 1930s, N. dolen “hidden, secret” appeared as the passive participle of N. doltha- “conceal” under the root ᴹ√DUL “hide, conceal” (Ety/DUL).
