Just a silly question
 

Hullo! This is my last day of the school year. So I wondered how would you say "free at last!" in elvish?

You know what, I'm not sure, and I'm not sure where to look. [img]smilies/redface.gif[/img] Though You would probably find the answer if you asked in the Language forum.

Thank Eru almighty, we are free at last!

I've been out of school for over a week now. We start before Labor Day here.

Hang on, I'll get out my dictionary and see if its there.

I'm free in a week - forever!

Forever!!!?? So you must be out of college! Congratulations!

Hmm.... I guess I might check the Language forum. I got out last wendsday.
Ithaeliel, I love the picture!!!!!

<font color="gold"> I got out on May 24th.

May 24!? Man, I guess nothing is fair in life (or should I say death [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] )

Well...to free = leith
now = sii'
after = ale'
so = ikotane
long = an...so:

"Ron leithner lye sii', ale' ikotane an"
They freed us now, after so long

Or...just Ron leithner lye sii': they freed us now...

free is leitha, so...

Lye naar ie' tella
That's LITERALLY: We are free at last...

take your pick (or make a combination)!

Boring fact, English schools don't break up until July 18th.

I culminate from the sixth grade on the 20th. There is this ceremony, and I'm doing a viola solo in front of three hundered people!!! [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

Way to go, Gimli. I'm sure you'll do fine. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Scottish schools break up on June 28th [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I gradsuated from high school June 8.

Auriel, July 18?! That's my birthday! Another reason to like America. hehe

<font color="lightgreen"> wahhhhh! i have to wait, like ten more days before school is out, and thats way too many!!! i'll never survive!!! (okay, maybe i will) </color>

VanimaEdhel, thanks for the translation!!
I think I'll put that one in my signature.
(when I have time!)

After doing some research, because I don't recognize what VanimaEdhel posted as a translation as Quenya, I found a different result.

the verb to free is not what you'd want because free in this context is used as an adjective. We (subject) are (verb) free (adjective). If you were saying "we free..." then the grammatical dissection would be we (sub) free(verb). If you wanted to say you were in the act of doing the freeing then you would say "we are freeing..." and the dissection of that would be we (sub) are (auxiliery verb) freeing (gerund). Wow, i probably confused you a lot! Sorry just want you to understand. Languages are definitely more complex than one realizes!

Anyway, the Quenya verb "to free" is "fainu-" fyi.

the adjective "free" as in "we are free" is "latin(a)" you would need to have plural agreement, if you are using the sub "we" and not if you are using "I." so use "latin" for "I" and "latinë" for "we"

the interjection "at last!" is "yallumë"

now the subjects are a different story. If you are using "I" then the ending you would want is "-nyë" but just an "-n" can do. So with the verb "na-" to be it would be "nan" or "nanyë." With we it is way more difficult. If you are including everyone, you'd use the "we inclusive" which is "-lmë" if you are using the "we exclusive" then it is "-mmë." If you are talking to another person and you mean to say, the two of us, it is "-lv-." I assume you want to say "we are free at last" as in the whole student body. So I would say: "Naralmë latinë yallumë!" and you would stress the the phrase: NarALmë LAtinë YALlumë.

We exclusive: "Narammë latinë yallumë!" Stress: NarAMmë LAtinë YALlumë

two of us: "Naralvë...."
Stress: NarALvë...

I am free...: "Nan latin yallumë!" or "Nanyë latin yallumë!"
Stress: 1st syllable of every word

Ok, there are plenty of grammatical things I did not discuss because I now assume I have bored you to death or confused you beyond repair. I have only tried to help!

hm, she might have translated it into Sindarin.

um....... denthae cal duen(?) - i think thats right! it means 'free at now' which is the closest i can get for now to free at last. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] it makes sense, anyway! its in ardunoth for those of you (and there are none!) who are familiar with neremorn. namarie!
