I'm looking to get a tattoo of the Gandalf quote "all we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us" translated into Tengwar. However it appears that most of the results of a "translation" I can find are actually transliterations which I would rather avoid. If someone could...

Hello everyone! For Christmas, I managed to find a Quenya & Sindarin dictionary that I plan to gift to my father. Given that I do like linguistics and the universe of Tolkien, I’m trying my hand at translating some sentences to write on the gift card. It’s been really interesting, I feel like...

Hello all. I am new here although on my "studies" for a translation I always end up in this forums so I guess it's better if I ask directly. I want to write a present for my wife and daughter and I wanted to translate "Carmen daughter of Sergio" and "Carmen daughter of Carmen" into Quenya (or...

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.
