elvish language question....

I got this great trinket box fro x-mas that has Aragorn on the front with Eowyn and Arwen. Outlining the box is nothing but elvish writting. How can I find out what it says?

do you have an older copy of the return of the king like from the 1980's? cuz it has the whole alphabet in there along with runes adn other stuff adn if not you can find in on the internet easily and download to your wrodpad to use it to write messages...there is also tapes yuo can buy to teach yourself elvish.

Do you have a picture of it?

(Probably it's the same as round the map - that would be fragments of poems by Sam and Legolas, but that's only a guess)

- The Tengwar-and-Rune-tables should be in all Appendices
- If you download it be careful cuz most cant be used for direct translating - I mean the a-key doesnt give you a in elvish and so on
- Really??? Tapes with elvish? WHERE???

If you go here http://hem.passagen.se/mansb/at/tengscribe.htm
you find several downloading links for msword-fonts; but they're not the easiest to use, you have to know which letter means what, I think; but there are several different and, the best, translators that keep the right sound for the differend languages to be transcribed correctly

TengwarScribe.

You find explanations to teach yourself on the same site (links on the bottom, "tengwar"), but there are no exercises, only theory

-> I dunno which one you used, but this program shows you which keys you have to use if you download the font for getting this word wink because "a" doesnt give you "a" but "p" or "k", I think, so if you type "3R" you actually should get "dh" and some e that fits to "dh" wink complicated, complicated, but it works

As I already said this is a help tool for the font because it does not transcribe like a normal font but systematical after the table.
