This is not a chatboard. You are liable to have to wait hours, even days, for anyone to reply sometimes. Also, this has been done before.
I love ben would be: Ni melme Ben.

Melmë 'love' is a noun however, and you want a verbal expression with 'I love' ... Tolkien actually wrote something in this vein (albeit a bit 'early', see Lost Road) with: Atarinya tye-meláne 'My father, I love thee' and A yonya inye tye-méla "And I too, my son, I love thee"
According to David Salo (language expert hired for the film) the 'updated' form of the first example might go: tye-mélan (The second Tolkien example contains the theoried to be 'emphatic' ind. pr. inye 'I' with emphasis). My suggestion would be to use mélan 'I love' and copying Tolkien with David Salo's update, we might get: tye-mélan 'I love you' My suggestion at least, based on current info and current opinion from the experts. ¤ Last edited by cian : 02-10-2003 at 08:52 AM. |

Do a search. There are threads about speaking Elvish. Colsing.
