I've been trying to teach myself Sindarin and I'm wondering if I translated my name correctly. My name means "bringing light", so I translated it to "tol-", which means "to bring", and "calad", which means "light". I'm pretty new to Sindarin, did I translate correctly? Thank you for your time!
Mae govannen Tolchalad. So calad would be mutated and l+c would become -lch-. Or possibly Caldollor/Calthollor
While names may initially seem the most daunting aspect of Sindarin, understanding their formation is crucial. Starting with names is possible, as I did, but there are more effective approaches.
Sindarin can also be challenging at first because of all the mutations it performs for articles, direct objects, prepositions, etc.
