The causative suffix -en is used to make many verbs from adjectives. Strengthen is to make strong, redden is to make red, enliven ( two ens!) is to make lively. It doesn't work with all adjectives. We don't use "brownen" to make brown, for example.

The ~en at the end is not always a 'suffix' as such but is simply the last two letters of those particular words. e.g. as in oven, raven (bird), coven.
