Aganzir 11-15-2007 09:15 AM

Some D's for me, please.

Guinevere 11-15-2007 09:37 AM

I need some T
 
somehow I had assumed that T had already been asked since there is one in the second word, but I see now that there must be more of them!

Nerwen 11-15-2007 12:25 PM

WASH DT

"Th---/ -----ast-----/ th-/ -a--d/ s---/ sha--/ --d---/ th-/ t-----t/ --/ h-s/ s----/, ------d/ --/
h-s/ ---s/, ----ss/ th--/ ----d/ t-/ --/ th-/ -ast---/ --/ th-/ t-w--/."

You're right, Guinevere, that "t" in the second word was an accident.:o Or at least premature. I must have put it in without thinking.

Dimturiel 11-15-2007 02:28 PM

Any E's?

Guinevere 11-15-2007 02:54 PM

I was thinking of Latin "it smells" ;)
...und woher stammt denn Deine poetische Signatur, Aganzir ?

Aganzir 11-20-2007 12:51 PM

Oh yes- I guess it might have occurred to me also had I not been lured away by the Finnish word.
Meine Signatur stammt von einem der schönsten Lieder, ich je gehört habe; Heimkehr von der deutscher Band Orplid. :)

Any S's?

It's not something so well known, I'm afraid...

Nerwen 11-23-2007 06:41 PM

K?

I'm guessing this is from something I haven't read for ages– UT, by any chance? (You don't have to answer that.)

Hint: its from the Akallabeth...
