Congratulations Enca for getting further than me so very quickly.

I can't yet use the first person, so:
TGWBS laita Encaitare.

Lhunatic: I'm trying to put a very specific peace of prose into poetic form, so yes, I think in English first and then translate. However, as I'm going for the rhyming effect, once I do one line, I have to search for something in context to rhyme with it.

Incidentally, the reverse Quenya wordlist isn't as up to date (is that all one word...?) as the normal wordlists, so I'd advise carefully checking any words you find there with another wordlist before you use it.
