The suffix 'en-' is used when you intend to form transitive and intransitive verbs from adjectives. Like the words forgotten, and hidden. Forgotten means to forget something (in past tense), and hidden means to hide something (in past tense). Usually the suffix 'en-' is used to put a word in past tense.
