Re: Nice so far!
Well, they're just recapping past episodes on 'Survivor' now, so I think I can squeeze this in. (It's a comedy, not a reality show, no matter what anyone says. )
Rider/Citizen of the Brass Storm-city - no word for brass or whirlpool
The Vortex/Whirlpool of Raging/Angry Fire - no words for votex or void
The Black Crawling Demon Tower - Tel' Raukobaradmor Tanyabel
- Tel' Raukominasmor Tanyabel
(the black demon tower that moves)
try to be more broad and less narrow in your description if at all possible, generic words work better, since I can only translate what's in the dictionary.
The Darkness that Burns/Consumes the Sky/Air/Heaven - Tel'huine tanya Vastel'vilya (the darkness that consumes the air)
Sage of the Mist/Clouds - Sintartel'hisie (sage of the mist)
The Horned Wolf - Tel' Draugtilion

A NOTE ON PRONOUNCIATION:
This is straight out of the Silmarillion, so TAKE NOTE.
CONSONANTS
C - always has the value of k, never s; thus Celeborn is 'Keleborn', not 'Seleborn'
CH - always has the value of ch in Scotch lock or German buch, never that of ch in English church.
DH - is always used to represent the sound of a voiced ('soft') th in English, that is the th in then, not the th in thin.
G - always has the sound of English g in get; thus pronounciation is as in begin, not gin.
VOWELS
AI - has sound of the English eye.
AU - has the value of the English ow in town; thus the first syllable of Sauron is like English sour, not sore.
EI - has the sound of English grey.
IE - should not be pronounced as in English piece, but with both the vowels i and e sounded, and sun together; thus Ni-enna, not 'Neena'.
UI - has the sound of English ruin.
AE and OE - ae may be prounced in the same way as ai, and oe as in English toy.
EA and EO - are not run together, but constitute two syllables; these combinations are pronounced: ea - ay-ah , eo - ey-oh[/i].
U - should be pronounced oo.
ER, IR, UR - before a consonant or at the end of a word, should not be pronounced as in enlish fern, fir, fur but as in English air, eer, oor.
E - at the end of words is always pronounced as a disctinct vowel. it is likewise pronounced in the middle of words. pronounced as eh.
Hope this helps.
