There's no such language as "Celtic." There's a Celtic FAMILY of languages, which includes Irish, Scottish Gaelic, Manx, Welsh, Cornish and Breton.

I can tell you that that word is not Irish.

... but that if it were spelt like this:

dánadas

it would mean "boldness, daring, forwardness, audacity", although the usual "standard" form is dánacht.

if it had a fada over the first 'a' - dánadas - it could be a variant form of dánacht meaning boldness, daring, audacity

oops too slow!
