sindarin

There are a lot of tools out there ot translate from English (or many other languages) into Tengwar, but I have found nothing that will do the reverse. I have acquired a remarkable piece of fan art, a massive wall map of Middle-earth executed in a fine and experienced hand, and written entirely...

I ran into a Sindarin neologism and had a few thoughts I thought I'd share, especially about rostor, which I saw glossed as “rainforest.” The form itself isn’t really the issue, but doesn’t it feel like the word is being asked to have a very modern idea? Tolkien usually seems to describe...

Mae govannen 🤗! May I kindly ask you for your help regarding Sindarin pronunciation? How do you stress the adjective edhellen knowing that the noun is stressed on the first syllable E-dhel? The general rule is to stress the second to last syllable unless it is a short syllable or it is foôowed...

Hey fellow middleearth-fans. I wrote a scene to put on my next showreel as an actor and it's completely in Sindarin. Or should I say, I want it to be completely in Sindarin. Sadly, my Sindarin skills are pretty bad. So if you would like to read it and correct any errors, I'm sure there are...

Hello everyone, hope you have i nice day! Can i ask for some help? I wanna make a paired tattoos with my girlfriend, so, are there any word or phrases on Sindarin which mean "soulmates" or something like that. Or very cute and lovely phrases or words which would describe the maximum intimacy...

Hello fellow lotr/tolkien universe fans! I am looking to have a tattoo in Sindarin (written in Tengwar) and I tried to learn the language, but I am faced with issues when it comes to the translation. I would like to translate "Kindness and patience will light the way" From what I have...

Hi fellows lotr fans, I'm planning on getting a tattoo about lotr on my chest. Below you can see the idea as a whole. If i'm correct the symbols around the tree are nothing more than what is written on the One Ring: I would like to change that. In detail, I'd like to change that with a Gimli...

Hi! I am new here, and I was really hoping anyone could help with a translation. I am intending to engrave the sentence "You are my Blessing" in a piece of jewellery. However, my Sindarin knowledge only extends to Sindarin Tengwar transcription/transliteration, and is certainly not anywhere near...

Hello all! I am a long time lover of LotR, but in my free time am getting more serious about my hobbies, one of which is trying to learn Sindarin. I'm hoping some of you may have suggestions or answers for me on what to do when I can't find a word in Elvish. For example, Honor. I'm working on...

Hi! I am new here so I'm sorry if I get to mess up and such, but going to the point; what would be some translations of the name Daniel in elvish, or in any other language really? All I've found is the sindarin translation😅

Well met friends! May I ask for some help checking over my translation? I'm looking to translate "not all those who wander are lost". I belive I translated it to "law pain i revlar mistar aen" and then again, giving the attached result. Have I done this right? Thank you in advance.

Hi there, mellyn! 🙂 I'm looking for help and guidance from this community regarding writing in the Sindarin language. The idea is that - I want to get a tattoo with the phrase "Follower of the star" or "Follow the star" in Sindarin. After conducting some research using open dictionaries, mostly...

Hi, i have a problem. My friend and I want to get a tattoo together and we would like to write "always'' and "forever" in sindarin. the problem is that I can’t find the translation of the words or I’m not sure. I found online "illumë" and "anuir", but I am not convinced of their graphic...

Hello fellow fellow fans of Tolkien. I am working on a book, for myself and family that is in the realm of Middle-earth. It will not be for sale its just something fun I am doing. It's about a Half-Orc and his family. He married a Half-elf "Sindarin". And found many sources for creating names...

Greetings! I'm currently on the process of getting a correct Sindarin translation of a phrase from the Peter Jackson's movies: they differ from the books, but since it's for a tattoo, a shorter version is more manageable. The phrase is "Fell deeds awake! Now for wrath, now for ruin, and a red...

Hello! May I ask for the help of any Sindarin experts here to please check my amateurly coined words? I wanted to come up with a few titles and nicknames for Thranduil, in his role as Elvenking, and here is what I've cobbled together using Parf Edhellen: Belaith ("The Mighty" - Sindarin) --...

All I can find is Gold or the primitive, base-stem of Yellow, or the Quenya version. Does anyone know what "Yellow" is in Sindarin?

For clarification, "mountain-home" in Sindarin would be Barorod, yes? Would it be contracted at all, say to Barod? I'd translate it into Khuzdul but we don't know enough etymology for that. Follow-up question: "treasure-valley" in Sindarin would be Mirimlad, yes? Or Mírimlad? I'm unsure...

Hey guys I have a few questions. I'm looking for someone that can help me piece together and translate my quote I want for a tattoo. How would I phrase and translate something like "there is no greater enemy the the self doubts of which some fall victim too" Also I'm writing a short story...

Hi, all! First-time poster here! I love Tolkien’s “The Hobbit” and “The Lord of the Rings” book series (I read them a few years back), and have only started watching the films (I know, I’m very late, lmao). I wasn’t aware that there was a site before so I’m pretty excited to be here now, too...
