White Tree A tad too challenging . . .

I see a lot of German, a bit of French, and a swarm of things that I need to check avec meinen Freundins großes Wörterbuch. :D

Thumbs up Nicely done.

And oh! was it in the past tense? :o Well, I don't know that in Italian, so I just did simple present. :D

Question Erm . . .

My grammar is wrong, isn't it?

Question Vielen Dank, Guinevere! :)

And many? Nay. :o Well, I know many languages cursorily, but I can express myself properly only in three, maybe four, of them.

Hmm . . . Drawing on some knowledge of basic French, and with the aid...

White-Hand Hmmm . . .

From what I remember of my German (half a year unused by now), 'und nach Norden gehen mit jedem, der mir folgen will' means something like 'and go to the North with some who will follow me.' I think...

Thumbs up Yep.

Told ya. Just a few words and Guinevere will sniff the quote out. :D

Tolkien Hehe.

:D

Although, the way you broke down the thing is almost scary. :eek:

*sigh* I wish I had your language abilities. German was easy until we came to Partizip II. And I've yet to go to advanced...

White-Hand Danish, right?

[Strider: ]It is part of the lay that is called The Fall of Gil-galad, which is in an ancient tongue. Bilbo must have translated it. I never knew that.

Every mishap of mine will be blamed on the end-of-semester crunch time. ;)

Some words to start you with:

Question OK, I'll take it.

'Gumagawa sila ng kanta na nagsasabing sa panahon niya ang mga ilog ay dumaloy ng may ginto.'

The language is Filipino. The quote is inexact due to imperfect cultural translation.

Thanks for the greeting!

White-Hand First try . . .
