  • Guide to Tolkienian Nationality Words by Malinornë After an Idea by ~Nóleme~
    Guide to Tolkienian nationality words By Malinornë after an idea by ~nóleme~ The purpose of this chart is to help writers of fan fiction to avoid common mistakes involving non-English names for groups and individuals of various peoples, languages etc. The letters in parenthesis in the first column show which language the main term is in: Q for Quenya, S for Sindarin, E for English, D for Dwarvish and R for Rohirric. For many of the Sindarin terms, two plural forms are listed. The term marked "coll." is a collective noun or class plural that is used for a people or group as a whole. If you need a term for a number of individuals, then use the second one listed. Example: "the two Enyd", not "the two Onodrim". Or, make it simple and use English: "the two Ents" :) If the general adjective is not known, it usually works to circumscribe, e.g. write "of the Dúnedain". It can also work to simply use a noun, e.g. "She had hobbit blood." Avoid the plural form – don't write "He had Eorlingas ancestors."

  • THE CIRTH the Certhas Daeron Was Originallypb Devisedmt Tod Representnk Theg Soundsnr of Sindarinls Only
    THE CIRTH The Certhas Daeron was originallypb devisedmt tod representnk theg soundsNr of SindarinlS only. The oldest cirth were , , , ; , , ; , , ; , ; , ziueo 1 2 5 6 8 9 12¤ 18 ¥19 22 29 31 35 ; , , , ; and a certh varying between and . The assignment 36 39 42 46 50 iue o 13 15 of values was unsystematic. , , and were vowels and remained so ¤ 39 42 ¥ 46 50 S in all later developments. 13 and 15 were used for h or s, according as 35 was used for s or h. This tendency to hesitate in the assignment of values for s and h continued in laterpl arangements. In those characters that consisted of a ‘stem’ and a ‘branch’, 1 – 31 , the attachment of the branch was, if on one side only, usually made on the right side. The reverse was not infrequent, but had no phonetic significance. The extension and elaboration of this certhas was called in its older form the Angerthas Daeron, since the additions to the old cirth and their re-organization was attributed to¤ Daeron.§ The principal additions, however, the introductions of two new series, 13 – 17 , and 23 – 28 , were actually most probably inventions of the Noldor of Eregion, since they were used for the representation of sounds not found in Sindarin. In the rearrangement of the Angerthas the following principles are observable (evidently inspired by the F¨eanorian system): (1) adding a stroke to a brance added a ‘voice’; (2) reversing the certh indicated opening to a ‘spirant’; (3) placing the branch on both sides of the stem added voice and nasality.

  • HARD-TO-REMEMBER NAMES THAN a RUSSIAN NOVEL” — Special Names, Their Significance, Types, and Relative Hierarchy in J
    UNIVERSITY OF JYVÄSKYLÄ “MORE HARD-TO-REMEMBER NAMES THAN A RUSSIAN NOVEL” — Special Names, Their Significance, Types, and Relative Hierarchy in J. R. R. Tolkien’s Quenta Silmarillion A Pro Gradu Thesis in English by Tommi Ojanperä Department of Languages 2007 HUMANISTINEN TIEDEKUNTA KIELTEN LAITOS Tommi Ojanperä “MORE HARD-TO-REMEMBER NAMES THAN A RUSSIAN NOVEL” Special Names, Their Significance, Types, and Relative Hierarchy in J. R. R. Tolkien’s Quenta Silmarillion Pro gradu –tutkielma Englannin kieli Toukokuu 2007 108 sivua + 1 liite Tutkielman lähtökohtana on perusteltu väite, että J. R. R. Tolkienin romaanissa Quenta Silmarillion (1977) erikoisella ja poikkeuksellisen laajalla nimistöllä on erityisen merkittävä asema ja että tätä nimistöä tutkimalla ja analysoimalla monipuolisesti, sekä kvalitatiivisesti että kvantitatiivisesti, voidaan saavuttaa merkittäviä tuloksia koskien romaania kokonaisuutena. Tutkimuksen ensisijainen tarkoitus on tutkia nimistöä etenkin kvantitatiivisesti ja nimien frekvenssejä tutkien rakentaa luokittelu eri nimien merkittävyydestä. Nimistöä käsitellään tästä näkökulmasta ennen kaikkea kokonaisuutena, mutta tarkempaa huomiota kiinnitetään etenkin poikkeuksellisen usein esiintyviin nimiin. Nimistön kvantitatiivisen tutkimuksen perusteella pyritään selvittämään, mitkä romaanin henkilöt, tapahtumapaikat ja ryhmät vaikuttavat olevan merkitykseltään erityisen suuria. Tässä suhteessa romaania tutkitaan toisaalta kokonaisuutena, toisaalta 24 luvusta koostuvana rakenteena. Lisäksi pohditaan mm. laajan nimistön tuottamia

  • LING Thesis Draft 5
    TOLKIEN’S TONGUES: * THE PHONETICS AND PHONOLOGY OF TOLKIEN’S QUENYA LANGUAGE Kelsey Ryan ABSTRACT J.R.R. Tolkien, author of The Lord of the Rings and other Middle Earth tales as well as Oxford professor of linguistics, constructed over 14 languages in the development of the background of his stories. This thesis will seek to understand Tolkien’s linguistic experiment of Quenya, first in its historical context, and then assess its linguistic merit and behaviors. In the first few sections, Tolkien’s linguistic and academic background will be investigated, setting the scene for further linguistic analysis. This thesis then explores how the authentic nature of the language is developed and evoked through the phonetics and phonology of Tolkien’s Quenya, using the poem “Namárië” from The Fellowship of the Ring for analysis. Smith (2010:7) argues that Tolkien created a “flowing,” “light and melodious” language, designed much like a Romance language, with no “potentially harsh” phonemes or “brusque English consonant clusters.” But with such claims must come evidence. This thesis provides the background research Smith (2010) lacks behind these claims, defining Quenya as a functional language, with clear patterns and tendencies towards particular phonetic and linguistic behaviors. * Special thanks to: my advisors Professors Nathan Sanders (Linguistics) and Maud McInerney (English), Sofia Berlin and Lisa Bao, the library staff, particularly Jeremiah Mercurio, and Lizzie Carp and Bobby Brooks, for their ‘Excel-lent’ help in creating graphs. Thanks also to my close friends, who have pushed me to explore nerd culture all my life. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS 1 Introduction………………………………………………………………………3 2 Tolkien Biography……………………………………………………………….4 3 Constructed Languages and Tolkien……..……………………..……………...7 4 Description and Use of Languages.……………………………………………..8 5 Data and Phonetic Analysis: Quenya………………………………….………13 5i.

  • 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).

Not all those who wander are lost.

I would also like to thank my friends and family for always pushing me to go one step further and to think outside the box. I discovered the universe of Middle-Earth during my childhood, and for that reason, it will always have a special place in my heart. Before going to bed, my father used to read The Hobbit to me.

As this is a review for the Journal of Tolkien Research, a volume with the title A Companion to J.R.R. Tolkien will undoubtedly be of interest to Tolkien students and scholars. Reviewing such a lengthy scholarly work is indeed both a daunting and equally challenging task. The reason for this is twofold: 1) the academic profile of the volume and 2) the eminent line-up of Tolkien scholars who have contributed their specific knowledge to each of the thirty-six papers in this volume.

  • Studies in the Sources of J.R.R. Tolkien's the Lord of the Rings
    .-- . .,l,.. .I~ i . ,. s._ .i. -_. _..-..e.. _ . (3 f Preface i In the Spring of 1968 while I was studying the Old English poem Beowulf with Dr. Rudolph Bambas, my colleague and classmate Judith Moore suggested that I might enjoy reading a new work by J:R.R. Tolkien, known to us as the editor of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight and the author of that seminal article -- “Beowulf: The Monsters and the Critics.” The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings delighted me that summer. In the fall, at the urging of another colleague, I enrolled in the Old Norse seminar. That conjunction of events proved to be the beginning of a lifelong study of Northern literature and its contributions to the cauldron of story which produced The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, The Silmarillion, and The Unfinished Tales. The first version of this study became my doctoral dissertation -- “Studies in the Sources of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings.“1 Throughout the years that followed while I was either teaching college English or working as a librarian, I have continued my research. The original study was based on about twenty-five sagas; that number has been tripled. Christopher Tolkien’s careful publication of The Silmarillion, The Unfinished Tales, and six volumes of The Historv of Middle-earth has greatlyreatly expanded the canon available for scholarly study. Humphrey Carpenter’s authorized biography has also been helpful. However, the Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien have produced both the . greatest joy and the greatest terror.

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.
