"Hyarmen" and "formen" are the names of Quenya Tengwar letters "hy" and "f" and are used on maps for "south" and "north."

Hyarmen and formen mean Soputh and North indeed, but I don't think that they are names of Quenya Tengwar letters .

I advise you to search a little further, Udu!

Great new title, the Shadow Lord of Morgul! *bows*

Gordis, for the answer I was going on this quote from page 401:

"The names of the letters most widely known and used were 17 n, 33 hy, 25 r, 9 f: númen, hyarmen, rómen, formen = west, south, east, north (cf. Sindarin Dûn or annûn, harad, rhûn or amrûn, forod). These letters commonly indicated the points W, S, E, N even in languages that used quite different terms. They were, in the West-lands, named in this order, beginning with and facing west: hyarmen and formen indeed meant left-hand region and right-hand region (the opposite to the arragement in many Mannish languages)."

I know, Udu.

Actually I was looking for this quote several pages further:

They were, in the Westlands, named in this order, beginning with and facing west; hyarmen and formen indeed meant left-hand region and right-hand region (the opposite to the arrangement in many Mannish languages).
Anyway, you ask the next question, Udu. One quote is as good as another

*Chuckles good naturedly* I would have to go for the complicated answer. *Grins*

I have an easy, fun question. Where in the Appendixes is the word "outhouse" used?

Appendix E
"In Dwarvish, which did not possess the sounds represented above by th and ch(kh), th and kh are aspirates, that is t or k followed by an h, more or less as in backhand, outhouse."
