Mellonamin,

Below you will find simple grammatical rules and word lists for use in creating elven phrases.

Much effort has been put into making the process as simple as possible. A section on elven roleplay may also be found after the word list. The Grey Companys Elven is a growing language based ‘loosely’

on the elven found throughout JRR Tolkiens works. As we strive to nurture its growth, all input is encouraged and appreciated.

In other words, don’t pretend you made it when you pass it out. If you add your own words and phrases, please inform a member of the Grey Company so we can see to it that the new words are added, you’ll be given credit for it.

* -ing endings are expressed by appending -ad or -ien to the stem if it ends in a noun or - d if it ends in a vowel.

Example:

I am coming to the point

* -ed endings are expressed using the past tense conjugation.

Example:

entwined they slept in each others arms

7) CREATION OF NEW WORDS

* keep it simple, use portions of other words, and try to remain true to the flowing nature of elven

* before using the words your new words, either post them to the GC private folder entitled Elven Language Discussion, or get written permission from the Keeper of The Dictionary.

* rationalize your derivation, before using the words that you create. If a suitable words for derivation do not exist than make one up keeping in mind simplicity and the nature of elven.

* when taking a noun from a verb stem:

1) conjugate to present form for direct noun (i.e. ele- to see, elea(v) sees, elea(n) sight 2) for a related term, append either o or u to the stem (i.e. eleo - eye) 3) when ascribing the verb to a person, append ar to the stem (i.e. oht-war, ohtar - warrior)

* when creating words from two or more words, append together and drop enough letters from the appendor to avoid cumbersome letter sequences (see below)

8) PHRASE CONSTRUCTION:

* Use subject - verb - object (add adverbs and adjectives as above)

* Phrase questions as statements followed by question maker.

* Words such as a, does, would etc. may be inferred from the context of the phrase.

* When appending pronouns or adjectives, you may drop letters from the appendor in order to eliminate awkward sequences of letters. Examples would be avoiding 3 consonants in a row, 3 vowels in a row, or 2 of the same vowel in a row.

Examples:

Amin mela lle.

I love you.

Lye nuquernuva sen e dagor

We will defeat them in battle

Lle anta yulna en alu?
