Hmm I reported him, too... but only once 😛

Anyways - back to topic 😊

Hm, when I first started reading about the different elvish languages, I somehow never liked Quenya 😑 now I think it's even better than Sindarin ✅

Did you get my pm, Exa?
Thanks if you did.
I reported him three times, once on this thread, one in another, and once in yet another......

Lol ^^

Will translated this and the other thing to Quenya tomorrow.

Am currently thinking about the construction in the middle of the first sentence as several of those words are missing... but I think "being" is indeed a reason to use "to be" though its only very rarely used normally... "being" would I think be something like "nol" in sindarin 🤨 sounds - um, wrong 😖

Yes I know I'm always late ✅
But here the translation of the three lines from the Lay of Leithian 🙄

"The wolf howls. The ravens flee.
The ice mutters in the mouths of the sea.
The captives sad in Angband mourn."

>
Qu.
Narmo rama; Quácor autar
Etsiressen ëaro helcë lamya
Angamandessë móli nainala nyénar

In order to make it sound better the word order could be changed between nearly all words... or an "i" added before "narmo", "quácor", "helcë" and "móli"

^^

Still dont have the island-thing 😐

exa what do u make of that attachment??? is it in quenya or some other cheap LotR wanna be??

Nope, that IS Quenya, and an imo quite good wordlist, too... easier to use than most others as similar words are also collected next to each other...

The only "problem" is imo that the roots for the words aren't given so that it's enough for translating to Quenya, but not for comparing languages to each other, unless you know the etymologies by heart ^^

Thanks for sharing 😄

*saves to disk*

youre welcome.....i was just searching thru a ton of sites and one said that it was easier then most to read....so i just looked at it and thought it looked good....but i was worried that it mite not be quenya (which is what im learning

I FIGURED OUT HOW TO WRITE LETTERS WITH ACCENTS....i just found out from a friend who was messing around and found out u have to write a special code for that one letter 😱 but the downfall to that is that now i got to memorize them all 👇

😄 😄

What codes? There are several different ways, one for typing in general, in MSWord-documents etc, which is imo kinda complicated

try things like pressing ALT and then try some numbers on the num block (example: ë=Alt-137; íóú=Alt-161, 162, 163...)

Or those that are easier to remember as they have logical names, but can only be used in html-documents:

xxx being the verbal description of the letter you want 😛 like, ë is called euml (e+uml. - the shortcut of the german word "Umlaut" which is also used in other languages for the letters with two points over it, like ä and ö), hence ë is ë;

This accent ´ is called "acute" in french, hence aacute is á, eacute is é etc.

^ is called circ[umflex] -> & ucirc; = û etc

` - which doesnt occur in the elvish languages - is "grave" -> è, à, ....

How the hell do you type ALt 137? 😕

You press the "ALT"-key - not sure if it was the left or the right one, but only one of them works... and they type "137" (on the Num-block, not the numbers beneath the F-keys!) 😑

Doesn't work.

D'you have a normal keyboard?
And did you try it with both ALT-keys?

Yes.
do you press 137 like,
"1" "3" "7"
or simulataneously?
ë
Did it!!
