Now it's obvious!

The Corrigan speaking to Aotrou.

Yes, that's it! :)

Here's one that seems appropriate:

"r"s, please.

and O please, if any!

I'd take an S if possible.

...a R O S by any other name...
 

'-o- ---- o-- ----s!' ..... '--s- -s --r-s---s -s -o----, -oo. So s--so-----. -o- ----s-- --- ---- ---- --! -- ---- -- ---- -o ---- R--- ---- ---s --r-s---s.'

R O S I
 

'-o- -i-- o-- -i--s!' ..... '--s- -s --ris---s is -o-i--, -oo. So s--so-----. -o- ----s-- --- -i-- -i-- --! -- -i-- -- ---- -o ---- R--- --i- --is --ris---s.'

Sam says an "e".

R O S I E
 

'-o- -i-e o-- -i-es!' ..... '--s- -s --ris---s is -o-i--, -oo. So se-so----e. -o- ----se- --- -i-- -i-- -e! -e -i-- -e ---e -o ---e Re-- --i- --is --ris---s.'

T would be nice

T-time for Rosie
 

'-o- -i-e o-- ti-es!' ..... '--st -s --rist--s is -o-i--, too. So se-so----e. -o- ----se- t-- -i-- -i-- -e! -e -i-- -e ---e to ---e Re-- T-i- t-is --rist--s.'

C's please (two of them capital C's ;) )

`How like old times!' they said. `Just as Christmas is coming, too. So seasonable. How pleased the King will be! He will be able to have Real Tail this Christmas.'
JRR Tolkien - Farmer Giles of Ham

I have a question also. May we choose a quote from any of Tolkien's writings, or is there a specific topic ?

Well done, The Might, and welcome to a thread that seems to be dominated by German language members! ;) (Guinevere's location tells you where she lives; mine is currently Christmas-themed, but I live in Germany, even in NRW, like you!) Tuor, who started the thread, is the only regular who doesn't speak German. :)

This thread is reserved for Tolkien's minor works; the list of works we've used in is the first post, but I'll post it here for convenience: We have included The Homecoming, since we have it in the book Tree and Leaf, but haven't yet used the Father Christmas Letters. I do have that book, so if others do as well, we could include those. In addition, several of us have a copy of Tolkien's poem The Lay of Aotrou and Itroun, so we occasionally use that. Oh, and we have used Tolkien's lecture 'On Fairy-Stories' and the poem 'Mythopoeia', since both are also in Tree and Leaf, but not often.

Please let us know which books and stories you have; we'll be happy to choose from the list so that you can participate regularly! It's your turn to post a new one now.

I have Roverandom, Farmer Giles, Adventures of Tom Bombadil, Leaf by Niggle, and the Father Christmas Letters. Anyway, I intend to purchase the missing works sometime soon, so no need to not use all of them in this thread.

Anyway, new one:
`-- ---'-- ---- -- - -----, ---'- -- ------- ---- -----. -- --- ---- -- ---- -- ----, ---'-- ---- - --- ----.'

5 o'clock here - T-time, please!

`-- ---'-- ---- -- - ----t, ---'- -- ------- --t- -----. -- --- ---t t- t--- -- ----, ---'-- ---- - --t ----.'

I'd like to see the A's

Ss for me, please.

' -- ---'-- ---- -- a --s-t, ---'- -- -------
--t- -----. -- --- -a-t t- ta-- -- a-a-, ---'-- ---- a --t

T A S

R there any Rs?

T A S R

`-- ---'-- ---- -- a --s-t, ---'- -- ------- --t- ----r. -- --- -a-t t- ta-- -- a-a-, ---'-- ---- a --t --r-.'

`-- -o-'-- -o-- o- a --s-t, -o-'- -- --l-o-- --t- ----r. -- --- -a-t to ta-- -- a-a-, ---'ll ---- a lot -or-.'

I have it! That's Farmer Giles, speaking to the King.

correct ;)

Here's a new one: The holiday weekend may interrupt us, but that's OK - we'll keep going whenever we happen to have time, or afterwards.
