Long are the waves on the Last Shore falling,
Sweet are the voices in the lost Isle calling,
In Eresëa, in Elvenhome that no man can discover,

what did the meal that Merry and Pippin prepared the three hunters when they arrived at Isengard consist of?

When Sam and Frodo are lost in the Emyn Muil and they come to the cliff that they have to climb down; how deep does Frodo think the cliff is?

Heh, not my fault I'm wrong. It was translated to 100 feet. I don't like the new translation. Grrrrr... he changed the names too. (calling Imrahil, for example, Yimrahil)

what new translation? and really you were only off by eight feet. it was actually 108 feet=18 fathoms.

new question: when leaving Helm’s Deep what does Legolas see that no one else does but Gandalf refuses to let him do anything about it?

To Hebrew. The old one isn't much better though. (translating the 'C' in Celeborn as a 'z' (like in pizza))
