I need a Sindarin word that means "forgotten" or "forsaken."

According to the Hisweloke Sindarin Dictionary, "awartha" means "to forsake/abandon." What would be the past tense of this word?

This would be the name of a female human, if that helps. However, I don't really want to put the usual -wen feminine ending in her name.

Thanks for any help.

You're looking for the past participle here, and that would be awarthannen.

Darth Fingon,

Thank you for your speedy translation help. "Awarthannen" will be a great name.

I guess there is no word in Sindarin for "forgotten." I couldn't find anything in any of the Sindarin wordlists I have bookmarked.
