Seventh post on elvish languages : The Nandor and their different names in the main elvish languages.

Hara mariessë meldonyar !

The last were the Nandor! This post will be about them :) !

For this seventh post, the same sources have been used : An article on elvish linguistic, " "Sindarin" is a Quenya Word : how the clan names make Elvish more confusing", a Telerin word list on Sindanoorie.net an another article on Tolkiendil (a friench website) about the Vanyarin tongue, "À quoi ressemble le Vanyarin ?"

Also, the words marked with ¹,²... are suppositions I made.

1. In Vanyarin the old form with "Ñ" is kept with its prononciation "Ng".

2. "Danel" refers specifically to one of the People of Denethor.

3. I used the same word as the one for the Teler of Aman but I'm not sure.

4. The article "A quoi ressemble le Vanyarin ?" says that words ending in -r in Noldorin would end in -i in Vanyarin so we would have "Ñoldoi" [Ngoldoi].

5. "Denil" or "Dani" refers specifically to some of the People of Denethor.

6. Here I supposed that the Falmari made no distinction between the Teleri from Valinor and the Nandor for they were all of the same clan before being separated.

7. In Vanyarin, the old form with "Ñ" is kept with its pronunciation "Ng" and the article "À quoi ressemble le Vanyarin ?" propose -ei or -í for nominative plural, compare with the form "Ñoldolí".

8. "Danwaith" refers specifically to the People of Denethor.

9. Here I supposed that the Falmari made no distinction between the Teleri from Valinor and the Nandor for they were all of the same clan before being separated.

10. I made the adjective as if it was Noldorin.

11. I supposed that "Edhellen" would work both for the adjective and the Nandorin tongue. Also, "Dadhren" come from the article ""Sindarin" is a Quenya Word : how the clan names make Elvish more confusing".

12. Here I supposed that the Falmari made no distinction between the Teleri from Valinor and the Nandor for they were all of the same clan before being separated.

13. I made the adjective as if it was Noldorin.

14. I supposed the word was the same as the Noldorin one.

15. I supposed that "Edhellen" would work both for the adjective and the Nandorin tongue.

16. Here I supposed that the Falmari made no distinction between the Teleri from Valinor and the Nandor for they were all of the same clan before being separated.
