elven

Suilad! I hope it's alright for me to post this on this specific forum. For a while now I've been translating songs to Sindarin elvish, ranging from Disney (Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, ...) to Game of Thrones. I've even done Simon and Garfunkel's "the sound of silence" and "Once upon a...

Hi, I think Elvish is such a beautiful and harmonic language. I'm interested in knowing what it would look in writing and how it sounds like, to say "I make my own luck". Either in Quenya or Sindarin, or both. Thank you!

Hi all, it'a my first post here. I've been tinkering around with Microsoft Excel, and decided to calculate the percentage of human/elven/maia ancestry in the half-elven line. Enjoy :) http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c18/maxphotouk/halfelven.jpg

Every-time I go back to it, I'm kind surprised how much of the Grander mythology is hinted at it was was originally just a half-baked children's tale.

Hey folks! This is my first post here, and I wanted to jump straight to the chase! :*) So, the other day, I stumbled upon a website called "Three Rings for the Elven Kings: the World Described by Tolkien is Real!" It contains quite a few bucket-loads of information and assumptions. The first...

Greetings ! Let me share a bit of my work inspired by Tolkien's realm. Homemade Elven Survival Slayer Machete by Valar God It is a genuine, fully functional weapon. Forged in the fires of Angmar, a mix of machete, axe, sword and knife, a blade based on original elven weapons: Homemade...

(copied from a post on a related thread that hasn't gotten any traffic for months, since this comment) HOW were the half-elven able to choose? I didn't find much in my quick flip through the appendices, and Wikipedia merely made a point about the choice being "granted" by the Valar. So...what...

Being somewhat bored at the moment, I thought I'd write an song for Valentine's Day. I kind of imagine that a misunderstanding like this is what accounts for legends of elven-blood in the Took family. Elven Lovesong I met a girl called Buttercup, In Breeland she did dwell. And though she was a...

Why is Elrond treated as High-Elven, he never travelled to the blessed until the end of the War of the Ring Take a look at this passage from Many Meetings We can assume that the Elven-Wise includes Elrond, but like I said earlier, he hadn't previously lived in Aman, so, huh? :confused:

Here are some links to mp3 fragments of the work "Elven Oratory" by Russian composer Mikhail Kostylev: http://www.tarakanov.net/mp3/Tolkien/Valinor-320.mp3 - introduction "Valinor" http://www.tarakanov.net/mp3/Tolkien/Aldudenie-320.mp3 - "Aldudenie" ("Lamentation for trees")...

These emblems appear in the special features on the TFOTR EE DVD. Do these designs come from Tolkien? What are the unnamed ones?

Does anyone know if this elven language that Tolkien made for his books is possible to speak. I Guess what I'm asking is, is it possible to speak elvish or even learn to write it. I got this question from the thought of the movies. In the movies several characters were speaking this Elvish...

There are plenty to choose from... :)

I was just wondering if anyone here knew which language it is they are supposed to be speaking. I'm doing a project (for college) on the power of speech in Tolkien's work, and the movie is a quick reference I know my prof. will understand. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

I find this hard to believe. It is true, if there are a number of Kings, but you are named "High King," you are the "King of Kings" so to speak. But I especially have difficulty believing that Ingwe could have controlled any of the Noldor, and I guess Teleri (but to a lesser extent...

Ok. Before I settle in all nice and cozy, I need to find something out, once and for all. Especially since I have a friend who is arguing about this with me. (Notice, I dont say which one of us believes what to be true, thus removing any possible guilt of being wrong from me. LOL) What terms...

If I recall correctly, in one of the books, it said that prior to Aragorn and Arwen, only two other Human-Elf couples existed. Then again, it clearly stated that Prince Imrahil, of Dol Amroth, had a fair bit of Elven blood in him. While it is possible that he could just be a descendant of...

A bit of a side- theme to the Arwen debate, really, but this can go off in a rather broad direction. What do you think ? Do you see elves as better than humans, perhaps devine even, simply because they are elves or do you see them as being judged upon their deeds and actions , therefore not...

Does anyone here know what Aragorn said in the book (Lothlorien chapter at the end) when he said: "Arwen Vanimelda Namarie" *can't do the accent thingy*

I was just wondering what kind of special powers or abilities Narya, Nenya and Vilya gave to Galadriel Elrond and Gandalf. Also, how many rings of power were first made?
