A different type of name game
O.K.
This is hard to explain. First you type in the meaning of the word and a different person has to tell the Elvish (Quenta or Sindarin) name of it. Then the get the honor of doing the next one. Example: Lover of the sea ----------------------------------------------- Next post would say: Earendil ----------------------------------------------- Ok lets start Maiden crowned with a radiant garland |

I hope this one receives Ben's Seal Of Approval ;)
Star of Radiance = Gil-galad Lord of the Trees (And it isn't Treebeard. ) Great game, btw! |

Try agai, IP, it's not Shelob. Shelob isn't Elvish!

Bullroarer...Lord of the Trees can also be Aragorn....if you're curious.
ar(a)=high, noble, royal g-augmentive prefix orn=tree The only thing I can come up for "Old Spider" is Ungoliar. Is that right? |

Well in that case....
I'm guessing Ungoliant, but that means Great Spider or Dark or whatever.
Ah what the heck. UNGOLIANT!!!!!!!!!! |

Re: Well in that case....
it's Ungoliant! Ungol=spider (as in Cirith Ungol; I know this is translated as Shelob's lair somewhere, but it really means "spider pass")
Actually, I just looked up the elements in Sil. and I realized "iant" means bridge, not old, as I had always thought! Looks like I got the elements of Iant Iaur mixed up a long time ago and it just stuck in my head that way! I'd always had it in my head that Ungoliant meant "old spider". Sorry about that; no wonder everyone was confused. As etherealunicorn would say, another brain fart. It seems to get gassier up there as I get older. So what's next? |
