English
द॑न्, द॑नस्. See द॑त्, 2. & 1. दम्.
(accord. to some
fr.
 √ दंस्, ‘to make straight’, either ‘to raise, erect’, or ‘to put right, rule, guide, manage’

=
 ‘a guide, manager, institutor’).
Monier Williams 1872
English
दन् 1. दन्, Ved., explained by Sāyaṇa as
a participle fr. rt. 1. दा = ददत् or दातृ, giving,
bestowing
modern scholars connect this word with
पति and explain पतिर्-दम् as a transposition of
दम्-पति, q. v.
दन् 2. दन्, considered by some as a Vedic
root, from which they derive the Desid. दीदांसते
(referred by Pāṇ. III. 1, 6, to rt. दान्, q. v.) and
other forms
the meaning is said to be straight, to
straighten
to correct. (In Ṛg-veda I. 174, 2,
दनस् is said by Yāska to = दान-मनसस्, liberal-
minded, disposed to give, see Nirukta VI. 31
but
according to Sāy., दनस् = अदमयस्, thou hast
humbled, or by transposition of the letters अन-
दस्।)
