Ooh, I didn't see THE LINK. Now that I've listened to it though it sounds really good (a Polynesian language with a bit of French thrown in? :P ). I did notice an interesting word at around 5:15, benvenu; is it just a false friend with the Romance words for welcome? Also, did you create it on purpose or did it just show up?

That's the general intention, yes.

There's nothing false about that particular friend - 'benvenu', formerly 'benuveù', from 'benu', 'politeness', and 'veu', 'symbiotic' or 'mutually beneficial'. Not the same etymology as the Romance words, but same basic principle. Translated as 'hospitality' or, yes, 'welcome'. Very intentional. ;)

Here's the One Ring Poem in Mironese. It requires heavy use of the dative case in plural (Mironese has lost a lot of singular case distinctions, but plural cases are still very recognizable). :hmm:

Ôtüzi gevi, af Ovömprivüdi, pubia tte,
Iuz, af Nanpriviàhnûti, em brödü iale ttuesüdi gîti
Trôtu, af Grisyonîti Kemüdi, grisyiîti lüzyà

Ôtü kani af ömâpü gu'eri xet em limu ustü guà.

Em Ttôkü Mordorem, mulü Limüzyi liksüât.

Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One ring to rule them all, one ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them

In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

I'd like to join you, group of translators! First of all, I want to thank Kēwēkamē for the idea, really, my language has earned about 60 words (and a grammatical case) during the translation. My language ain't very "talkable" yet, so I'm quite amazed of what I could get out of it :D Well, here it goes:

The Fellowship of the Ring: Prologue, Paragraph 1

Hönsereo eranemaya Hobbitdoh etho reth’ha, mhi ga-hardöayü Hobbite histhoryado de bazhade en’horöhe amosüfaardo reth’her phergamiinara ereth’ha. Hardödweayü airo honothyado Borodino Westhohe-Rineerahe Reth’hamhuv theai phuborishdweaai so pherhira: “Hobbit”. Orizhinadweaön yetho theera Borodino-Reth’hahe zhemyereh thorozonarah, theai sephthaaön Bilbo theaen honithyeaen inan Hobbit ode ‘werda. Namaredweaen thorozodoh “Horaen mhi Virath Thore Zheyeen,” garyon thezeaön horehe egarado de vazhisedo theai nan’aen avanthüür the hönsereayü oshen’eh hobbitdo, nemaya eventhogasheh ezhin yetho theaieh thezedweaön eishi.

This book greatly concerns Hobbits, and from the book’s pages, the reader will possibly find a little of Hobbits’ history and much about their character. More information will be found in the selection from the Red Book of Westmarch, which has already been published with this title: “The Hobbit”. That story was comprised of the earlier chapters of the Red Book, which were written by Bilbo, who was the first Hobbit to be famous in the rest of the world. The chapters were called by him “Away and Back Again”, because they told about his journey and about his return, which was an adventure that later involved every hobbit, during the great events of that time which are here told.


Chapter 1, Paragraph 1

Sun adovezhageaen hore egareethdo ehore-vagaraya-garayainan egaregaer so supaashera nemaya egareeth Bilbo Baggins eBag eBanthe, izhaaen thezeyadoh de zeimayado bazhade Hobbiton’uv.

When Bilbo Baggins of Bag End made an announcement about his celebration of his eleventy-first birthday with an especially significant party, much talk and excitement was in Hobbiton.

Literally:

One ring to enslave them, and to find (them) all
to lead them into the black darkness, and to bind them in it forever

(it's always difficult to translate poetry, so please don't mind that my translation does not always correspond to the original version, I think it's close enough :P)

So, Plusquam's post in the other thread reminded me of a really short recording I made a while ago in Laefêvëši and I thought I could just post it here. :)

The text is:
Nárali dóke híjanarøto hôbbistasku. Vrétaške dók níonva afíllilvovó rǿtǿlaraskuþimo lin ǿralejníškekħina. Lylántasaþani čü tasínirøvó ćíntali Wášnárade Sélþóðandade, ak vatálēvøy tumánadu Hôbbist. Pólikē ešéla raʒéšidói olléjasta kjäivekū Wášnárade, nivíimmā Bíltvolo, aśíffā hôbbistau, ak ǯulíeklaleso minârrūgëj.

Original English version:
This book is largely concerned with Hobbits, and from its pages a reader may discover much of their character and a little of their history. Further information will also be found in the selection of the Red Book of Westmarch that has already been published, under the title of The Hobbit. That story was derived from the earlier chapters of the Red Book, composed by Bilbo himself, the first Hobbit to become famous in the world at large [...].

EDIT: I've just realised there's a mistake in the recording, I read "Sélþóðandade" as "Sélþóðanande". No Idea why I haven't noticed that sooner ... :oops: But I cba to make a new recording right now so it'll stay that way for now :P

Sounds great, a bit as if you mixed Finnish and Turkish and inserted some more fricatives to give it a touch of Slavic... :)

Haha, Turkish, that's a first. I've been told it sounds sorta Finnish mixed with Slavic but never Turkish. Interesting :P

Reviving this thread, since it provides some nice texts for testing out a more literary style.

So ... how are the translations going? :P

I finally translated the Rings of Power poem to Celestial Laefêvëši. It's quite different from Classical Laefêvëši (the previous version of the langauge).

Image Celestial Laefêvëši:
Dûkellui ráljebáutasli taj ôrōlou,
léinui lâšešântasli rjójéamivjâzifli,
faránui áirantasli, ƕiéillai ránojeru,
la sán Sînešântelo sjósînebáiggi,
Mórdorwáli, sêin is aíef únnos.
Dûkesi šânvøøn kvø, dûkesi tívyyn je,
dûkesi allávyyn kve li sînili dvénvøøn je,

Mórdorwáli, sêin is aíef únnos.


And for comparison:
Image Classical Laefêvëši:
Amántelišo báutøst laráelly nej ôrōlou,
âleišo oskôntøst lâšeelly ǿrneáivjâzišli,
farášo ōšimêþøst, akkes sávridói áryvøøn
ýśa üttúoskôntøst űjmüttúlerjántuki
wináli Mórdor, sêō aíexiš uvémano.
Amántyvi mâŗiavøønnaa ske, amántyvi tasívyynnaa se,
amántyvi aláwlaannaa ske li sînili vásvøønnaa se

I just translated the One Ring Poem into Selvesco.
Vienho de traduír el Poém del Ungo Anielo en Selvesco.

Tres Anielos pôs Reïs Elfis suto lo cielo,
Siet pôs Senhoris Nanis dento loris domis de piedra,
Nuof pôs Huomis Mortás predecis morír
Uno poli Senhori Oscuro sur suo truono oscuro
Nel Tíer de Mordor ove ês Ombras se estiendon

This is the poem of the rings in Izkaironki, the language I've constructed.

Ζιτ γαλυναρ ελφ-νυῃρετεκ, ζᾳλαηεγε.
Βλωβα κυθελέτ-σαχνιρετεκ, γαβαραρεν φιλανζιγαραβυ.
Σαβάμ διρταεσκε ρακχαμιρετεκ, κωνδεμνίτζ διρτάιενα.

Μωrδωr-γω βἰανδαβὐιλε, ὑεr ρακυσκ τζαλακιζτακιτζεν δυγύζ.

Here I post the poem of the rings in Güçen, a Germanic language I've been working on recently:

Drí Ringen dem Äwfkönikem, under de Hävne.
Sebn dem Cwóflódem, in wénzem Çtänpäwsem.
Níön dem täterem Männem, cu tätan betúmten.
Nu des Därklód, anu Därktróne.
Ans Mordorz Länd, hvär dusk Çadöwen lán.
Ne Ringu cu wán ällan rúlan, ne Ringu cu wán ällan findan,
ne Ringu cu wán ällan nemman änt num Çadöwem bindan wán.
Ans Mordorz Länd, hvär dusk Çadöwen lán.

I updated the Selvesc translation of the prologue and first paragraph of The Lord of the Rings.

Lo Segnor dells Anèlls: La Communtad dell'Anèll – Antistuoia: Sobiis Óbitis
Cuest libre vèrt principal-mènt lis Óbitis e, en lent lis sèis fuoglis, no litor puot descobrir molt sobii lor caràiteri e ni puog sobi lor istuoi. Piuspa informazión se va verìssim trovar ell seleizioni delli Libre roge della Marca uèst qui foi gza publiada colli tìtol L'Óbit. Cuest libre foi derivad dellis primis capìtolis dell Libre roge, compuost par Bilbo lù-maress, lo prim Óbit a cavir famós denz li mond en generali, e quiamad par lù Andar là et end Revenir, par celca racontavan li sèu viage alli Èsti e li sèu retorne, n'aventura qui empiëuuo pius tard todis lis Óbitis ellis grandis evèntis de cuell'erad qui se racontan cui.

Original text: The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring - Prologue: Concerning Hobbits
This book is largely concerned with Hobbits, and from its pages a reader may discover much of their character and a little of their history. Further information will also be found in the selection of the Red Book of Westmarch that has already been published, under the title of
The Hobbit. That story was derived from the earlier chapters of the Red Book, composed by Bilbo himself, the first Hobbit to become famous in the world at large, and called by him There and Back Again, since they told of his journey into the East and his return: an adventure which later involved all the Hobbits in the great events of that age that are here related.



Capìtol 1, Paràgraf 1
Cand Bilbo Buon-Sac de Fond-de-Sac fecz ni annuncz alli soget della siea intenzión de celebrar lis sèis ungzanta-et-un anis con ne fèst speczal-mènt signifianti, molt pallar e molta fascinazión apareren a Obitón.

Chapter 1, Paragraph 1
When Bilbo Baggins of Bag End made an announcement about his celebration of his eleventy-first birthday with an especially significant party, much talk and excitement was in Hobbiton.

Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, one ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

So, this is the poem of the rings in Ihi’appa:
‘A hatelle ilana ‘ilahata (The lord of the rings)

Niti ‘ilahata u ‘ana hanatte ilana elepe, i’uo ‘a hake.
‘Ee ‘ilahata u ‘ana hatelle ilana etieti’elle, ki pullaiihonnena issana.
La’e ‘ilahata u ‘ana puu’i ‘elle, ‘o puu konetenati.
Kihi ‘ilahata u ‘a pei hatelle, ki ‘a pei pulupunne,
Ki ‘a na’a ila Moloto, ‘a punne ilana sona.
Kihi ‘ilahata ‘o hatellu i ‘elle’ele, kihi ‘ilahata ‘o ‘akiku i ‘elle’ele,
Kihi ‘ilahata ‘o kallu i ‘elle’ele, ‘o loo’u i ‘elle’ele ki ‘ana sona,
Ki ‘a na’a ila Moloto, ‘a punne ilana sona.
