Daan

== English == === Alternative forms === Taan, Ta-an (Wade–Giles) Da'an, Da-an === Etymology === From the Mandarin 大安 (Dà'ān). === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /ˌdɑˈɑn/, enPR: däʹänʹ === Proper noun === Daan A district of Taipei, Taiwan. For more quotations using this term, see Citations:Daan. A district of Taichung, Taiwan. ==== Usage notes ==== In the context of Hanyu Pinyin, Daan can be considered a misspelling of Da'an. In theory, a syllable-dividing mark (隔音符號／隔音符号 (géyīn fúhào)) should be added before a non-initial syllable beginning with a, o, or e. Hence, Daan is not allowed since a word made up of da and an would be spelled as Da'an (cf. Da'an). In practice, syllable-dividing marks are often added or omitted at will. ==== Translations ==== === References === == Cebuano == === Etymology === From daan. === Pronunciation === Hyphenation: Da‧an === Proper noun === Daan a surname from Cebuano == Dutch == === Etymology === Shortening of Daniël. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /daːn/ Hyphenation: Daan Rhymes: -aːn === Proper noun === Daan m a male given name === Anagrams === naad, nada == Estonian == === Proper noun === Daan Dan, the fifth son of Jacob one of the Twelve Tribes of Israel, descended from Dan ==== Declension ====
