What does she say???

yea I know but some of their words vary from words found on other pages on the net
if anyone wants the acrobat file, of the grey haven elven dictionairy lemme know quite useful

Thanks again! great site. elvish is sooo cool. and soooo difficult. especially when your not english and learning elvish by english lessons...
is anyone here trying to learn it too?

so where you from?

i have huge pages saved on a lot of languages in tolkien's work. Quenya and all that other pack, orcish, dwarvish...not that i've really read those things. I'd like to know elvish..but i'd like to know another real foreign language instead..i can use that 🙂

I'm from the Netherlands ( in Europe). I know 'normal' english, but I really don't know words like syllables and consonants. I've looked them up in a dictionary, but I keep forgetting them. At school we only learn things like : I would like to book a double room, I wouldn't do that if I were you, and more stuff like that....
I agree there's no sense in learning elvish, but it just sounds so cool. Dutch sounds quite blunt, and elvish is really soft, it just kind of glides out of your mouth. O help, I'm getting poetic, I'd better stop writing...

why, you're english is perfect!

Elvish is very much based on the language they speak/ spoke in the , now Rusian place of Kärelen but it ised to be Finish.

don't get me wrong, i'd love to know quenya. (btw if i use the silmarillion's last pages dictionary i can probably put up a sentence..but forget about grammar😄)

p.s. yeah..english at my school sucks too...

true what finti said. and tolkiens myths about middle-earth are very much influenced by the finnish legend Kalevala

Dexx, where are you from? Yes, english at school really sucks. Most english I know I've learned by watching television or reading english books (like LOTR 🙂 ).

A better translation of the text would be:

I amar prestar aen,
The world change they

han mathon ne nen,
It feel in water

han mathon ne chae,
It feel in earth

a han noston ned ‘wilith.
and it [I smell] in air

This is a word for word translation so its a little confusing but I believe its better presenting it this way.

I also tried to translate the text into Quenya. I came up with this:

I palurin ahya ntë
ta tenyamí nén
ta tenyamí kemen
ar ta ñolnyë mí vista

wow that is awesome......u must kno elzish pretty well................i heard it is very hard to because there are too few words known to mankind.

Wow, Ohtararato, thank you 🙂
(What does your name mean? I have no Quenya wordlists at the moment, but is it something like "noble warrior"? "Champion Warrior"?

I think Quenya is too difficult for me, I'll keep learning more Sindarin 🙂

Only Quenya sounds a bit like Finnish, Sindarin is rather like Welsh.

The Quenya version's cool.

iamma heyana, anw a nennen (dunno anymore)

im only guessing *sniff*

i found in a book store at my mall a book on elvish, called "middle earth languages" and it has elvish in it, and its SOOO awesome, im going to get it soon, i wanted to get it, but i didnt have enough to get it, so i hide it somewhere so no one else could get it, cuz there was 4 books left! I think elvish is a amazing and beautiful language and i enjoy learning how to speak it, and i enjoy speaking it, there is a site i go to to learn it, i printed it all out and ill sit and learn it, and practice with it, today..i told someone "namaarie" which means farewell in elvish, and they were like: what?? and so i told them what it meant, and they were like: oohhh your speaking elvish! how neat!

hehehee! i was like: yeah im learning it, i think its amazing and she was like: well that is neat, good luck with learning it!

Liv and Viggo did their Elvish lines very well!

I am impressed on Liv's interpretation of her character and on her lines. Cool! 👆 I'm sure people have said this before, in the million threads on this subject 😄
