The Tolkien Translation Game!

[Frelga]

You want to give us a quote?

[Jude]

[Alatar]

Sorry guys, forgot all about it!

This took a slightly rude diversion...

We get his hole he he. The King secretly

[Jude]

OMG the Translation Party has been hacked by a bunch of twelve-year-olds!

Was this spoken by some orcs at Helm's Deep?

[Alatar]

It was indeed!

[Inanna]

He he??

[Jude]

I'm not sure if it was the whole paragraph, or just this bit:

We will fetch him from his hole, if he does not come. Bring out your skulking king!

[Alatar]

Just those two lines! Perfect! Have to admit I chuckled when I saw it. But then I's still a 12 year old boy at heart.

[Jude]

Here's a new one:

They are cheated on the boat on that big river. It is not natural.

[Inanna]

After Lothlórien?

[Jude]

No, before.

[Voronwë the Faithful]

Just out of curiosity, what was Frelga's quote? Unless I missed something, it never actually got posted here.

[Jude]

Anybody need a hint?

[Frelga]

Just out of curiosity, what was Frelga's quote? Unless I missed something, it never actually got posted here.

It wasn't, although Al was close enough that he would have found it soon. Do you want me to disclose it?

[Jude]

Was this Frelga's original quote, by any chance?

But remember: there is to be no slaying of hobbits, not even if they have gone over to the other side.

And just to remind you, here is the latest quote:

They are cheated on the boat on that big river. It is not natural.

Any guesses?

[Frelga]

No, not that one, Jude, but very close in meaning and location.

[Voronwë the Faithful]

And just to remind you, here is the latest quote:

They are cheated on the boat on that big river. It is not natural.

Any guesses?

Does it have to do with Boromir's funeral craft?

[Jude]

Nope - we haven't met Boromir yet at this point.

[Frelga]

Oh! Is that about that heinous crime out own Prim's namesake is said to have committed?

[Jude]

You're getting warmer...
