Hi all!

I'm new to the forum. I'm trying to translate movie Sam's phrase, "There's some good in this world and it's worth fighting for." I know it's got some weird grammar things happening, even in English, so I stumbled through my own translation into Quenya and then ran the phrase by the good folks on reddit. The response I got was that it would be best translated as "Eä márië sina Ardassë, ar valda mahta rása." I agree with their reasoning, but they said they were unsure of several parts, so I thought I'd post over here to get a second opinion. Would love any thoughts!

Thanks in advance!

Yeah, I asked my buddy GPT and he said it was correct.
