Nah, that Dutch edition is safe. Too old to get interested in learning a new language. However, if your copy is in English, BEWARE!!!

Off course you get one! *runs to the cupboard in the kitchen, takes one nice tasty Belgian chocolate bar, runs back upstairs, crams it into the computer, makes it virtual and sends it over*

Thanks, Eärniel - yum!
And I found out, strangely enough, that the actual WRITING of the characters is what really helped me to learn them. I don't know if it was just pulling it into a physical, vs. wholly mental, area that helped, but it sure did. Maybe it will work for you. But I think learning English and Quenya at the same time would be really difficult - I know I would be totally confused. Good luck!

Yes, writing them does help me too to learn them, well at least that's the way it went when I learned the dwarf runes. But I want to be sure that I use the tengwar the way Tolkien used them, so I plan on reading the part about writing Tengwar in LOTR as soon as I can at least tell them apart and afterwards I'm going to look at Letters how the great man himself used them. As soon as I got there, I'm moving to the writing stuff.
Maybe I should have put that in the tengwar thread... Oh well... ![]()

Ms. Undomial - thanks for the congrats!
![]() Let me just say quickly here that in the Tengwar thread in the ME forum you will find lots of info - links, references to books, etc. I gotta run now, so can't give you more details at this point - let me know by PM or a post here or the Tengwar thread if you found what you needed. YAY! Another Tengwar person!! I hope you have a scanner and can share some of your stuff with us.
