Correct. One word left. :)
Valandil
11-04-2004, 04:40 PM
'deadliest'? but shouldn't 'drive' be 'prove'??
S: Thingol, if not already named
oh, good guess, Val! That word was stumping me!
I had my Sil at hand, and you're right on all counts, Val!
Sister Golden Hair
11-04-2004, 06:47 PM
Yes Val, it should be "prove" and "deadliest" is correct. Your go. :)

YAY!! RtB is correct!! :)
Radagast The Brown
11-05-2004, 05:02 PM
Yeah.. but unfortunately, I can't write the new quote as I don't have the books with me - my computer doesn't work, and I'm in my grandmother's house... so somebody else would have to go! And make him do it fast! Becasue usually when one can't go, it takes a few days till someone else (me, in most cases :p) post a new quote...
Yet, if no one posts a new quote, I could do it... in two days or so. :)
Telcontar_Dunedain

Al of Eärniel's words are correct (there was a small spelling mistake on gorgûn but I'm sure it was just a typo! ;) ) Speaker is correct to.

All correct and the speaker is Pippin. Take it away Earniel.
Earniel
11-14-2004, 06:10 AM
Eh, I didn't count on that. :o I'm in my rented studentroom right now where I removed all books Tolkien as not to be distracted during approaching exams. I won't get home to the books before Thursday. So anyone else can have a go.

And could the last be word 'return' with a typo?
Sister Golden Hair
11-15-2004, 04:43 PM
"rather"?
Radagast The Brown
11-15-2004, 05:10 PM
Aldarion?
Between the 3 of you, you got the quote right - "I go, Lord! Yet now my heart yearneth rather to the Sea."
The speaker is incorrect - tho that was a good guess, Rad - it sounds like something he's say.
Radagast The Brown
11-15-2004, 06:15 PM
Tuor? :p
Righto! :D
Your go, Mr. Brown :) (sounds like The Matrix - what was that fellow's name?)

Uhm ... is that really a quote? :confused:
Count Comfect
11-18-2004, 10:31 AM
Aw shoot, this is the problem of trying to stick it in between classes. No, no speaker (*slaps forehead*). Got what it says correct so far though. That good enough, or should I try to repost?
Rosie Gamgee
11-18-2004, 11:46 AM
"Bilbo went to sleep with that in his ears, and it gave him very uncomfortable dreams.

Well, Artanis did practically all the work. Don't give the turn to me.

Speaker is correct, and there's only one word wrong.
"Truly, water is become now fairer than my heart imagined,
neither was my secret thought conceived the snowflake,
nor in all my music was contained the falling of the rain.
I will seek Manwe, that he and I may make /_e_o_i_s/ for ever to my delight!"
oh, it's "melodies", isn't it?
(and isn't it "for thy delight?")
Artanis
11-18-2004, 03:44 PM
'melodies' it is R*an. And it is 'to thy delight'. Sorry folks! :o
Your go R*an.
hee hee! I cut out Karl! We were IMing and he said he couldn't get the last word in the quote, so I zipped on over!
*stops and thinks*
You mean you WANTED me to get the last word so you didn't have to post the new one?! :D
(I always loved that quote you gave, Arty :) )
Here's a shortie, but hopefully the speaker will stump you guys a bit ...

Artanis
11-18-2004, 04:05 PM
'Hador' and 'yet'?
Edit: Ups, SGH was faster!
Rosie Gamgee
11-18-2004, 04:06 PM
Wow. I haven't read that in forever, and I couldn't remember names, but I had thought it was spoken to that dwarf.
Iss sshe right, my preciouss, my love?
You guys are just TOO GOOD! I thought "Hador" might throw you off, since Beleg was the speaker. But nooooooooo!

The quote is correct Beren and Val.
Rosie Gamgee
11-18-2004, 04:51 PM
Well, I suppose it was a dwarf of Doriath who said it. Was it actually a specific dwarf?
Telcontar_Dunedain
11-18-2004, 05:25 PM
It was Mim.
Rosie Gamgee
11-18-2004, 05:31 PM
That creepy dwarf again?! :eek:
Sister Golden Hair
11-18-2004, 05:40 PM
No, it wasn't Mim, and it wasn't a specific Dwarf. You should pretty much be able to tell who it is just from the quote. It's pretty easy. :)
Rosie Gamgee
11-18-2004, 05:45 PM
If the first sentence (question) is to be taken as rhetorical, than it's Thingol?
Valandil
11-18-2004, 05:48 PM
I think a spokesman for the Dwarf craftsmen who placed the Silmaril on the Nauglamir...
(but if I'm right, someone else could go... since it may be a bit before I could post) :)
Rosie Gamgee
11-18-2004, 05:49 PM
She said it wasn't a specific Dwarf. Which would mean it's not a dwarf- right...?
Radagast The Brown
11-18-2004, 05:52 PM
I think it was just 'the dwarves'... the ones that came to Doriath.
Sister Golden Hair
11-18-2004, 06:28 PM
You got it RTB. It was the group of craftsmen of the Dwarves that placed the Silmaril in the Nauglamir.
Valandil

"greater" rather than "dreaded"?

"In the wide lands without, /_l_m_a_i_,/ many strange /_h_n_/ (things?) may befall one, and tasks unlooked for be laid on end.
Other shall the wanderer return than as he set forth.

They're wondering if there might be a typo.

It IS a typo, 'things' is correct, sorry about that.
Yes I have been asleep, but I seem to have kept you occupied for a while. :D Good work all of you! :)
Here is what you've got:
"In the wide lands without, /_l_m_a_i_,/ many strange things may befall one, and tasks unlooked for be laid on/_n_./

_hat I have done, I have _o_e under command greater than the _a_ of the Guard.

Three whole words which may or may not be right:
"In the wide lands without, /_l_m_a_i_,/ many strange things may befall one, and tasks unlooked for be laid on one.
Other shall the wanderer return than as he set forth.
What I have done, I have some under command greater than the _a_ of the Guard.
The King alone should judge me, and him that comes with me."
Artanis
12-16-2004, 03:11 AM
'What' and 'one' is correct, 'some' is wrong.
Any takers on the speaker? That may help to find the first missing word too, perhaps.
Fat middle
12-16-2004, 05:28 AM
"done" instead of "some"?
"man" for the last word?
Is he Voronwë? I have no idea for the first word, though.
Artanis
12-16-2004, 06:06 AM
'done' is correct, 'man' is wrong.
It is indeed Voronwë, speaking to the Captain of the Guard of the outer gate of Gondolin. I think the captain's name can be translated as 'Star-sword'. :)
"In the wide lands without, /_l_m_a_i_,/ many strange things may befall one, and tasks unlooked for be laid on one.
Other shall the wanderer return than as he set forth.
What I have done, I have done under command greater than the /_a_/ of the Guard.

Fat middle
12-16-2004, 07:00 AM
"Law" for the last.
I'm not fluent in elvish languages... but I beleive that Star is "ellen", at least in Quenya. For sword the only word I recall is Mor-megil :confused:
Elemmagil :confused: :D
Valandil
12-16-2004, 07:01 AM
'say'?
OK - now the proper name. Too bad I don't know my Elvish! :o :p
"Elemmarie"? (sounds like a good match for our own 'Elemmire'! ;) )
Artanis
12-16-2004, 08:23 AM
Very good Gordy! :) 'Law' is correct, and Elemmagil is as close as it can get. Elemmakil is the correct name (Perhaps 'megil' is a sindarised form of 'makil'?)
Val - Elemmirë is Quenya for 'Star-jewel' (elen-mirë) :)

'they' is correct - and 'at the' - but not 'outset' - so currently:
"Turgon, Turgon, remember the Fen of Serech!
O Turgon, will you not hear in your hidden halls?
Even so they /h_s_e_/ in Serech at the /_u_s_t."

Thu, you say. Hm... I suppose I've mentally blocked much of what he said... wait, it's from the Akallabeth, isn't it? No wonder I didn't recognise it completely.
Hey, does Thu count as a proper name anyway, or were we going for Gorthaur or Sauron?
