Quenta Ession As Tengwar Dan Smithva: the Book of Names With Quenta Ession as Tengwar Dan Smithva: the Book of Names with Dan Smith’s Letters The Book of Names will tell you how to transcribe the names of many of Tolkien’s characters and places using his alphabets. The original book of names just shows the assorted names using tengwar: Elrond lj7h2{ This is useful when you want to copy the lettering over by hand. However, if you are producing artwork digitally, you may want to use one of the commonly available TrueType fonts. For a variety of reasons, there is no good way to arrange tengwar into a font (you can’t simply put the tengwa for ‘a’ on the ‘a’ key because there are several tengwar that mean ‘a’ in different situations). So just typing ‘elrond’ into a font will get you elrond—which looks, to an Elf, like you were trying to write ‘fevhwwch’. To get out lj7h2{, you have to type lj7h2{. So the current version of the Book of Names shows the letters you must type to get the correct spelling of the characters’ names: Elrond lj7h2{ lj7h2{ This will work with the following fonts: • lj7h2{ ql7l4lj Dan Smith’s Tengwar Quenya • lj7h2{ ql7l4lj Dan Smith’s Tengwar Sindarin • lj7h2{ ql7l4lj Dan Smith’s Tengwar Noldor • lj7h2{ ql7l4lj Johan Winge’s Tengwar Annatar (the font used in this document) • lj7h2{ ql7l4lj Mans Björkman’s Tengwar Parmaite • lj7h2{ ql7l4lj Mans Björkman’s Tengwar Eldamar • lj7h2{ ql7l4lj Enrique Mombello’s Tengwar Elfica • lj7h2{ ql7l4lj Enrique Mombello’s Tengwar Gothika • lj7h2{ ql7l4lj Josh Griffing’s Tengwar Teleri • lj7h2{ ql7l4lj Paulo A. Otto’s Tengwar Hereno Some of the more obscure tehtar did not fit on the standard keyboard; you must get them using extended character sets. For example, to get the twist in 2ènj`5, you must produce the glyph è. On a Windows machine, I believe you do this by holding down the Alt key and typing the numbers 0232; on a Macintosh, you do this by pressing option-` (the tick mark below the tilde) and then e. We indicate this as follows: Dwalin 2ènj`5 2ènj`5 2(232)nj`5 Thus, you may get 2ènj`5 by copying and pasting the text 2ènj`5 and changing to a Tengwar font, or by using character numbers as indicated on the second line. The fonts Tengwar Formal lj7h2{ ql7l4lj, Tengwar Naive lj7h2{ ql7l4lj, and Tengwar Beleriand lj7h2{ ql7l4lj are missing some of these tehtar. For example, Nenya is properly spelled 5$5#Ì, and if you use Tengwar Formal the underdots won’t appear: 5$5Ì#. So if you use these fonts, always check with the transcriptions in this document to see if you are missing anything.

For your convenience, the suggested mode for each character is written in black and colors. Other available spellings are written in gray. If you use more than one name in a picture, take all the spellings from the same column. Thus: • `V`C7F2%j `V`C7F2%j Eärendil, • ln7l2{`j @ tn7`5È6 ln7l2{`j @ tn7`5È6 Eärendil the Mariner, • l]7l2{`j ]9 ljn`g l]7l2{`j ]9 ljn`g Eärendil ah Elwing. Here are the modes I use: • Classical Quenya: The usual method of writing Quenya described in Appendix E. • Generic Quenya: It is impossible to write, say, Bilbo in Classical Quenya; this mode provides an alternative if you want a mostly-Quenya text with a few Mannish or Sindarin names. • Beleriand: The Mode of Beleriand off the West-Gates of Moria (recommended for Silmarillion characters and Elves in general). • Arnor: The Mode of writing Sindarin used by the Dúnedain in Arnor. • Gondor: The Mode of writing Sindarin used in Gondor. • Full: Tolkien’s preferred method for writing long inscriptions in English. • Tehta: A mode based on the tehta mode of Gondor (taken from the title page to The Lord of the Rings). Names are sorted as follows: Other characters; grammatical words (“grammatical words” here means and, the, of, so you can say “Aragorn and Arwen”) Birds Dragons Ents Ainur (Valar, Maiar, Wizards, Balrogs) Animals and Plants Dwarves Elves Half-Elves Hobbits Westron names of the hobbits Men (First Age) Men (Second Age) Men (Third/Fourth Age) Men of Arnor Men of Dol Amroth Men of Gondor Rohirrim Orcs Places Rivers Objects Each section is sorted alphabetically by character’s last name (if they have one) or most common name (if they don’t). Be careful! There are over a thousand names in this document. Each is in multiple modes. I have an automatic transcription process that is pretty good, but it’s not perfect (especially for English names). Also, there is some debate as to what the correct transcriptions of English (and to a lesser extent Quenya and Sindarin) names actually are. I think that almost all of the names in this document are transcribed acceptably; I don’t think that every single name in this document is transcribed exactly as Tolkien would have written it.

  • Encoding of Tengwar Telcontar Version 0.08
    Tengwar Telcontar ‍ This document discusses the encoding of Tengwar Telcontar version 0.08. The latest version of the font and this document can be downloaded from the Free Tengwar Font Project: http://freetengwar.sourceforge.net/. Changes from earlier proposals By creating a fully functional Unicode font for Tengwar, my intention is to promote the proposal to encode Tengwar in Unicode, and to spur the discussion on the best way to design such an encoding. What then constitutes the best way to encode Tengwar? This I can hardly decide on my own; indeed, it is of the highest importance that an encoding proposal is approved by a majority of the Tengwar user community. You are therefore cordially invited to discuss and to propose changes to Tengwar Telcontar. If you want to familiarize yourself with the Unicode standard in general, you can find much information at http://www.unicode.org/. In particular, I recommend that you read chapter 2 of The Unicode Standard, which defines many important concepts (e. g. terms like character, glyph, etc.): http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode5.2.0/ch02.pdf. The current encoding of the characters in Tengwar Telcontar (shown in a table at the end of this document) is based on the encoding in Michael Everson’s latest discussion paper at the Conscript Unicode Registry: http://www.evertype.com/standards/iso10646/pdf/tengwar.pdf. However, I have on more than one occasion diverged from Everson’s table, adding some characters that I felt were missing and removed others that, to my opinion, either do not merit inclusion at all, or which possibly might be better represented in other ways.

  • Linguistic Soundtrack Textbook 2 — LINGUISTIC SOUNDTRACK TEXTBOOK
    THE LORD OF THE RINGS Linguistic Soundtrack Textbook 2 — LINGUISTIC SOUNDTRACK TEXTBOOK Introduction I have compiled this textbook as a reference while listening to the score of Howard Shore of Peter Jackson’s movie-version of The Lord of the Rings. It is based on information from the Gwaith-i- Phethdain-website, http:\\www.elvish.org\gwaith (All my thanks to those who helped to provide these information!), and comprises most non-english lyrics of all three film installments. In the first three parts, the lines that are sung are listed (as many as could be discovered...) with the corresponding times, sorted by film and track. Then follow the original poems, their translations etc. The times given refer to the special limited editions of the soundtrack. Still, they are incomplete and thus I have to ask your help to complete them. Any new hints can be mailed to [email protected]. All texts here reproduced are ©ed by New Line Cinema. They are from the official booklets, music sheets and websites. I wish you lots of fun in discovering the lyrics! Julian ‘Flammifer’ Jarosch, 29.03.04 Explanations: The marked parts of the poems are those that are sung in the score. Parts in grey are uncertain resp. left out. Parts in {braces} are comments / additions by me. You will find annotations with roman numeralsXXI where help is needed. — 0:05 ----Means that only the endig time of a lyric is known. The structure of the linguistic notes is roughly as follows: attested word part of speech, flection 'english translation'; (SOURCE).

Danielson: Re-reading the Map of Middle-earth Introduction In Chapter 1 of The Hobbit, we learn of our protagonist Bilbo Baggins that “He loved maps, and in his hall there hung a large one of the Country Round with all his favourite walks marked on it in red ink” (Tolkien 1966, p. 32-33). Some decades later, Bilbo's distant cousin Pippin laments his failure to have fully consulted the maps available in Rivendell before the Fellowship departed on its long journey (Tolkien 1965a, p. 370). From a handful of references such as these, we know that cartography existed in Middle-earth, and indeed that it was considered a perfectly ordinary and sensible thing to look at a map to find one's way.

For example, the break-up of language has been seen as a metaphor for the fragmentation of original truth or purity, and the divergence of the various races of Elves is connected to the separation of their languages (Flieger, 2002). In the narrative, the two Elvish languages most used in The Lord of the Rings and The Silmarillion, Quenya and Sindarin, diverge from a shared ancestor, but evolve in isolation from each other: Quenya develops in the heavenly Undying Lands whereas Sindarin remains in Middle-Earth, a land of relative strife and hardship. Although Quenya is a language heavily influenced by the divine beings who shaped the world, it is Sindarin, curiously, which wields power in Middle-Earth, and is often used to invoke magic.

  • Simple Lessons on Writing Sindarin with Tengwar an Introduction
    Simple Lessons on Writing Sindarin with Tengwar An Introduction These lessons are intended by the author (Fíriel :)) to only be a starting point for learning the basics of Tengwar in writing Sindarin, and not a complete course – if you have any interest in using Tengwar to write other languages (such as Quenya, English, French, etc), there are many well-documented sources and websites out there. These lessons are intended to be an accompaniment to Gildor Inglorion’s Sindarin Course at the Council of Elrond. It would also be impossible to simply memorise all the information presented in this mini-course after reading it once; several re-readings should be the norm, and there’s certainly no need to ‘cram’ it all! NOTE: The fonts that will be used for these lessons (readings AND homeworks) will be the fonts from Dan Smith’s site. To download them so you will be able to send in your homeworks, follow these instructions: Go to this site, by copying and pasting the address, and download ALL the "font packs" that have a "Windows" icon (5 of them altogether) ON THE left side of the page. http://www.acondia.com/font_tengwar/index.html Install them by doing the following: 1.) After clicking on the colorful "window flag" icon, press "open" when the blue box comes up. 2.) click "use evaluation version" when next box appears 3.) click "Extract" when the WinZip box appears 4.) Type in letter of your hardrive (I say that because mine is E whereas most people's is C) and the following: C:WINNFonts in the box where it says "extract to" 5.) then click "extract" 6.) Do this with all 5 of the Fonts with the colored icons, or the Tengwar fonts won't work on your computer.
