In response to your survey.. I typically use Welsh (or my bastardized semi-understanding of welsh conjugation) when I'm really ambitious, not being quite nerdy enough to actually have a Quenya dictionary.. It gives a different sound, but a similar flavor in my opinion.

And to keep you entertained, Angcuru, I suppose you could take a crack at these:

Light (as in weight) shadow

Silver Shade

Wind's Song and/or Singing Wind

Sky Rider

I just keep it as a quck reference, and for referring to me as nerdy, I'm not going to translate these. Keep off the thread if you aren't serious.

I beg your pardon, Angcuru. I hadn't meant any offense by it. I throw 'nerd' and 'geek' around with no negative connotations intended, and forget that not everybody wears/wore labels like "computer nerd" with pride in high school, etc.

Great Thread!
Could you do:
Traveller through Tomorrow's Gate
Enemy of Light's Champion

Thanks!

Aegis

OLE! I just feel like saying that lately.:D

Traveller through Tomorrow's Gate - sorry, no word for travel I'd narrow it down to something simpler, but I'd prefer that you be more specific.
Enemy of Light's Champion - Gothen Aratome'a OR Gothenaratome'a OR Goth en Ararome'a

Something to think of, Traveller thru Tomorrow's Gate gets some of its punch from the alliterative aspect :))), so when translating, keep in mind the sounds, and choose the translation appropriately.

And then here's a couple:

Awakened Wolf
Awakened Tree
Blind Oracle
How do I shoot a bow? Hey, you're translating and my PC needs to ask! :D

PS

Traveller through Tomorrow's Gate - Onyaran Imya Tul’reando
Awakened Wolf - Cuivedraug
Awakened Tree - Cuiveorn
Blind Oracle - (no words for blind or oracle)
How do I shoot a bow? - Sut magh cu? (How use bow?)
In elven phrases, filler-type words are not used, just implied. All they have to do is get the message across.
