... I figured this was best because it looked best. The other way looked absolutely awful. ... I'll try to keep this in mind in the future. ... In the title...
My goodness, Helge, you are quite the little masochist, aren't you? Very well. ... Once again we see one of the classic Fauskangerian rhetorical bankruptcies:...
I was once working on a Tengwar or like for Inupiaq eskimo, but sadly moved and lost my books/notes.. Anyone else doing a Tengwar for a non-European language? ...
Thanks for the response! I just got the internet working on my PC, and I have the fonts in it already. I didn't think I'd be able to use it for a while, and...
Chris, in regard to the quenya fonts that you have where are they available? Grace and I are just starting to study quenya together and we are pretty unsure...
... I found my fonts here: http://www.tengwar.art.pl/fonty.php. Don't download anything below Elfica. As far as I know, none of those fonts are organized the...
I'd suggest to write the <e> in 'ocean' on a short carrier, the same as the <i> in 'damnation, perfection'. The 'ea' in 'treason, sea' on one hand and in...
... Is Arabian a European language? Except for that, I once tried to make a mode for Guarani when I was learning a little bit of that language, but I couldn't...
I don't suppose that your bashing is going anywhere (as usual). Elflscript is not the right place for it (and it never was). Try to stop it, everyone (except...
I'm sorry, but I will not accept being included in this admonishment. As always, it was _Helge_ who dragged this discussion from matters of Tolkien's languages...
... Good suggestion. It makes sense, and is consistent with "io", as you pointed out. ... In your earlier post about what tengwa or tehta to use for different...
... That's one way to look at it, I suppose. ("Gee, it's a shame your store was robbed, mister. You did open your doors to the public, though....") Another way...
... Now I see your reason. You have a good ear when you hear that 'real' and 'fear' have a similar sound. Now when you compare the vowel of 'real' with the one...
Guys, this topic reminds me of something we all know: Elrond's Council. You two keep warming the ring ... I understand Carl's defending and Helge's ready...
... I happen to agree with you, Carl. I think you're right. I think Helge doesn't listen to what you actually say. I also think he enjoys winding you up. I...
... I don't think you're a "sucker" at all. But I do think you're overlooking a fundamental point, as evidenced by your addressing your appeal to "Guy_s_":...
... Then neither do you know whether I _don't_ need to. Nor do I. ... It is possible to _study_ Gothic. It is possible to examine authentic texts in Gothic,...

... The contempt with which you treat the rational capacity of your readers, as amply demonstrated by your bankrupt rhetorical methods, more than justifies...

Very clever and all, John, but once again, I will not accept being lumped in with Helge in this matter. It was Helge who began the personal attacks. It is...
... "An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind." Either one of you can drop this, and both of you should. If you won't, you won't, but it is false to...
This is not "an eye for an eye", John; that you think it is shows how little attention you've paid to the discussion. It is fallacious claim versus correction,...
Alright, the 7th Tengwar Challenge is up. There are no words in it that I am unsure about, which is a first. I may have written a couple wrong, but I don't...
... Nobody has contested that. ... And some are trying to do exactly the same with Tolkien's languages. You, Mr. Hostetter seem to find this morally...

Hi, I'm new and like many, am considering a tatoo: If anyone can help: i telda nat or i tyelima nat? (the last thing) Which means "let go": fainu or lerya? ...
