That was a hard one! (I'm not entirely sure it was fair! ;) )

Popping in the most commonly-used letter in the English language: E

The Squatter of Amon Rûdh 09-24-2012 01:35 PM

That's the one, Guinevere. It can't have been too hard, but I'll accept that perhaps Sindarin quotations aren't quite fair. It's been a while since I was in here.

As a matter of etiquette, we really should refrain from requesting letters until a quote's been put up. At least I feel so.

I see your viewpoint, but I'm not a very patient individual. I'm sorry if this annoys you, and I'll attempt to refrain from doing so. However, my computer time has gotten more limited recently, so I try to enjoy the time I have on here since I can't check back very frequently.

The capital E's and the ë 's were very helpful. (Btw, the quote was in Quenia, not Sindarin!;) )

Well, here is the next one (in English). I hope it's not too short!

"--/ -----/ ----/ -----/ ----/, ---/ ----/ -------/ ----/ -----/ ------/."

Legate of Amon Lanc 09-25-2012 10:03 AM

So, A ;) (Not E, you see :) )

Guinevere 09-25-2012 12:38 PM

A

"--/ -----/ ----/ a----/ ----/, a--/ ----/ --a----/ -a--/ -----/ ------/."

Inziladun 09-25-2012 01:19 PM

R, please.

Galadriel55 09-25-2012 01:35 PM

Could we have some E's?

Guinevere 09-26-2012 01:06 PM

ARE

"--/ ---e-/ ----/ a--er/ --re/, a--/ e-e-/ -ra----/ -a-e/ --e-r/ e-----/."

Legate of Amon Lanc 09-27-2012 03:05 AM

How about I? Slightly lame, but I get the feeling it might be there in some important places...

Guinevere 09-27-2012 06:09 AM

ARE I

"--/ ---e-/ ----/ a--er/ -ire/, a--/ e-e-/ -ra----/ -a-e/ --eir/ e--i--/."

MCRmyGirl4eva 09-27-2012 08:57 AM

N please... I seem to recognize about half the words, but not enough to ID it... Watch, somebody's going to get it and post the answer before me. :p :smokin:

Guinevere 09-27-2012 02:04 PM

IN EAR

"--/ ---e-/ -n--/ a--er/ -ire/, an-/ e-en/ -ra--n-/ -a-e/ --eir/ en-in-/."

Inziladun 09-29-2012 01:34 PM

Let's try S.

Guinevere 09-29-2012 01:42 PM

IN EARS

"S-/ ---es/ sn--/ a--er/ -ire/, an-/ e-en/ -ra--ns/ -a-e/ --eir/ en-in-/."

Inziladun 09-29-2012 02:05 PM

Ah!

Guinevere 09-29-2012 04:38 PM

That's it! :) S was a good choice!

Inziladun 09-30-2012 05:33 PM

Thanks, Guinevere.

I apologize for the delay. I'll get one up as soon as I can.

Inziladun 10-01-2012 09:16 AM

MCRmyGirl4eva 10-01-2012 03:38 PM
