ena
Verb
ena (present enar, preterite enade, supine enat, imperative ena)
- to unite (bring about agreement among the members of a group)
- Han enade det splittrade landet
- He united the divided country
Usage notes
- See also enas, which is a separate deponent verb (though with a meaning very close to the expected one): "De enades" means "they came to an agreement" rather than "they were united (by some third party)."
- For uniting separate entities, see förena.
Conjugation
1 Archaic. 2 Dated. See the appendix on Swedish verbs.
