<Yes, there is. The word is "en" (meaning "of the current state of mosture"), which is prepended with the modifier "damp" (meaning "to increase a quantity with relation to time or distance").>

I don't think that is correct. The root word is damp and it has a suffix, 'en. It is used to mean to make damp. For example, please dampen the cloth.
