Character Trivia
This is quite simple as it's like all the other trivia games. Basically one person chooses a character and we hav trivia on that character for a week. At the end of the week the person who got the last question for the last character right chooses the next character who we then have trivia for during that week and so on. So I'll start.
The character I choose is Aragorn. What does Aragorn mean in Sindarin?

Need any clues check out a quiz on www.allthetests.com and search Aragorn and there's a quiz called Aragorn.

Oh, is that quiz yours? I saw it (and the answers to it).
Would you consider it cheating if I answered the question,then? |

I know 'ara' means 'noble', and is used in all the later names of the Kings of Arthdain and heirs of Isildur. I didn't know there's anything else with menaing there?

But in the Sil it is said that 'tree' is 'Galadh' (Galad'?). How can 'gorn' be tree as well?

I'll leave this open because a couple of the other trivia threads have dropped off the page, but I am posting a message that there will be no more trivia threads allowed in this forum for the foreseeable future, because we don't want too many.
