ATS Bible Dictionary
En

A fountain compounded with many names of towns and places; as En- dor, En-gedi, En-eglaim, En-shemesh, that is, the fountain of Dor, etc.

Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary
1. (n.) Half an em, that is, half of the unit of space in measuring printed matter. See Em.

2. (n.) A suffix from AS. -an, formerly used to form the plural of many nouns, as in ashen, eyen, oxen, all obs. except oxen. In some cases, such as children and brethren, it has been added to older plural forms.

3. (n.) A suffix corresponding to AS. -en and -on, formerly used to form the plural of verbs, as in housen, escapen.

4. (n.) A suffix signifying to make, to cause, used to form verbs from nouns and adjectives; as in strengthen, quicken, frighten. This must not be confused with -en corresponding in Old English to the AS. infinitive ending -an.

5. (n.) An adjectival suffix, meaning made of; as in golden, leaden, wooden.

6. (n.) The termination of the past participle of many strong verbs; as, in broken, gotten, trodden.

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia
EN-

(`ayin (compare Arabic `Ain)):

The Hebrew word for "spring" or "fountain" (Genesis 16:7 Numbers 33:9 Nehemiah 2:14 Proverbs 8:28 (feminine plural)). It occurs in numerous compound words, as EN-GEDI, EN-HADDAH, EN-HAKKORE, EN-HAZOR, EN-RIMMON, EN-ROGEL, EN-SHEMESH (which see). In the same way the word `Ain is a very common component of Arabic names of places throughout Palestine and Syria at the present day. Places with names compounded with "En-" were almost certainly located near a spring.

See FOUNTAIN; WELL.
