My thanks too to Lommy, Volo and Brinniel!

And a tip of the head to Holby who gave us this great thread to enjoy....

Holbytlass has just left Hobbiton.
Thank you all for the birthday wishes!! And ghastly decorations!
I did enjoy my day-the wee ones cleaned up, made breakfast in bed (I got to sleep in till 10:00!) and did their very best not to squabble with each other. The hubby took me out for the evening.

I miss 33 'cause 3 is my favorite number but I love the thirties!!

Thanks again for the greetings

I'd love to say more, but it'd be for your ears only.

(Yes, I really mean ears. )

Erinomaisen hyvää syntymäpäivää! Ja kaikkea hyvää! Tervetuloa meille keskimaahenkisiin syömäjäisiin esim. kesälomien alussa... Palataan siihen vielä.

And my apologies to you others but it just feels so funny to use one's own language in this forum that I couldn't resist...

It's no wonder Tolkien used Finnish as a basis for Quenya. It just looks so beautiful to read .... if I'm sounding it out right .... or even if I'm not.

How does ä work alone? How does it work when paired with another?

Happy birthday to Spawnie!

Well, exactly: erittäin hyvää syntymäpäivää, Anna! (Ja kannatan tuota isäni "lausuntoa": täytynee neuvotella tapaamisesta! )
Toivottavasti sulla on tosi ihana päivä!

Well, it's the a in words "dance" (if you're American, of course), "happy", "fat", "and" and so on and with another ä the vowle's just longer...

Happy birthday spawn! You'll have to tell us what Lommy, Noggie and Volo have been saying to you ... once you've recovered from what will hopefully be a fantastic celebration.

Hmmm..... I don't say all those words the same way. Do you? But thanks!

By the way, Happy Birthday, Spawn!
