I translate your Latin back to "Elven Latin":

"Et Eärello Endorenna utúlien. Sinome maruvan ar Hildinyar tenn' Ambar-metta!"

(Elendil's oath: "Out of the Great Sea to Middle-earth I am come.
In this place I will abide, and my heirs, unto the ending of the world.")

Correct, Guinevere! Thread is all yours.
(Where did you get that cool 'flash of inspiration' smilie, by the way?)

Guinevere · 08-11-2009, 02:04 PM

Thank you, Pitchwife

and please excuse the delay! (I borrowed the smilie from the German Tolkien Forum "Elronds Haus")
OK, here is a new quote, in French again :

Quote:

Une femme doit partager l'amour de son mari avec son travail et le feu de son esprit, autrement elle fait de lui une chose non aimable.

Nerwen · 08-11-2009, 09:56 PM

"A woman must share her husband's love with his work and the fire of his spirit, or make him a thing not lovable."

-Núneth to Erendis.

Guinevere · 08-12-2009, 01:35 PM

Your turn, Nerwen

Aganzir · 11-09-2009, 10:16 AM

Nerwen? Somebody?

Nerwen · 11-11-2009, 02:49 AM

Sorry, sorry. I forgot about this thread.

I'll think of something...

Though the first word pretty much gave it away... and the semicolon.
