Hi everyone,
I'm a casual fan but my friend (basically my sister) is a huge, astronomical, can info-dump for weeks without repeating herself, fan.
In fact, she is such a huge Tolkien Nerd (lovingly labelled so), that she is about to do her PhD on the topic. (Message to my friend, if you're on here: no looking, this is going to be a surprise! Go away! lol)
Of course, she needs a gift, and I've settled on a nice leather messenger bag for her to take her things to university in, and I want to have a message in Elvish engraved/embossed onto it. The thing is, me being the casual fan I have no idea how to do this.
I could just whack the message into a translator and have the English characters converted into elvish text, however she deserves better than this which is why I'm here asking for help.
I' m manifesting a bit with the message, but basically I want to put: Doctor [her full name] Tolkien Scholar and Feminist Critic
I've seen that there are multiple versions of the elvish language, and I've had a play with the translation/dictionary tool and got totally overwhelmed. Please help before my brain turns to soup and she gets the half-arsed translation I managed to slap together.
Thank you!
