[ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]Mellonamin,
Below you will find simple grammatical rules and word lists for use in creating elven phrases.
Much effort has been put into making the process as simple as possible. A section on elven roleplay
may also be found after the word list. The Grey Companys Elven is a growing language based 'loosely'
on the elven found throughout JRR Tolkiens works. As we strive to nurture its growth, all input is
encouraged and appreciated.

2) for a related term, append either o or u to the stem (i.e. eleo - eye)
3) when ascribing the verb to a person, append ar to the stem
(i.e. oht-war, ohtar - warrior)
* when creating words from two or more words, append together and drop enough letters from

* Use subject - verb - object (add adverbs and adjectives as above)
* Phrase questions as statements followed by question maker.
* Words such as a, does, would etc. may be inferred from the context of the phrase.
* When appending pronouns or adjectives, you may drop letters from the appendor
in order to eliminate awkward sequences of letters. Examples would be avoiding
3 consonants in a row, 3 vowels in a row, or 2 of the same vowel in a row.
