Persian: andarun

[zarigh]

Hello!

we have the change below for darun in Persian as a relational noun:
antar-rauna- "inner side" > Middle Persian andar-rōn > andarōn > Classical Persian andarūn > modern ändärun> darun

Does anybody know if rōn, andarōn, or andarūn have been used as only a noun or they have been also used a preposition in the middle Persian? Thanks

 

[Persoman]

andarūn was used as a noun meaning the parts of a castle/mansion who the king/owner and his family lived as differed from those which was used to meet the officials of the land/or guests.

its opposite is borūn in Classical Persian and Bīrūn in Modern Persian.
andar is usually used as preposition, though andarūn is definitely an older word.
