Toltorpsdalen
التعريفات والمعاني
== Swedish ==
=== Etymology ===
Literally: "The Dale of Torald's (or Torvald's) Croft."
The name consists of multiple affixes but can be divided into two main compounds: Toltorp and dalen, with an interfix -s- in between.
Tol is a contraction of the name Torald, Torvald, or possibly another similar name. The second element, torp, means "croft" or "a smallholding established outside a village." Together, they form the meaning: "Torald's (or Torvald's) Croft."
The second half, dalen, is a compound of dal (“dale”) + -en (“the”).
In full, the name becomes Torald or Torvald + torp + -s- + dal + -en.
While the first half, Toltorp, is attested since 1396, Toltorpsdalen was first attested in 1593.
=== Proper noun ===
Toltorpsdalen ? (genitive Toltorpsdalens)
