Happy Birthday Ibri!
See, I got round all of the hard-to-pronounce-name discussion there. ![]() Actually, speaking of which, I remember on one of the Barrow-Downs Skype calls we each tried to pronounce various things that were hard to say, and your name was one of them. ![]() Yes, it is lucky (for us), Tolkien was consistent in his use of thorns and eths, because in Old English they were used interchangeably (though usually a thorn would begin a word, e.g. "þæt" while an eth would be used in the middle of words, e.g. "æðel"). Here we always know that an 'ð' will signify the 'th' in 'that', while 'þ' is the 'th' sound in 'thank'. However, now just looking at that and reading the Ardalambion page on Valarin, I've realised that all this time I've probably been pronouncing it wrong, and it should probably in fact be pronouced: "pat-hân" instead of "pathan" (or "paþan") as I have been saying it until now. Well, I suppose you should ignore the second line of my post then... ![]()

Five weeks on a trip makes one easily forget to check out things like this... ![]() Hey Legate! Feeling old? And Ibrin, you'll probably not count years anymore - like I don't - why think of those things anyway? Unless it is a cause for having a party... ![]()

When was Ibrin's birthday and how did I miss it? Hope you had a lovely celebration and burnt some candles at both ends--it doesn't matter how many!
![]() And I missed my fellow compatriots, Wilwa and Glirdy! I have to do a better job keeping track of this thread. I hope you had a great celebration together guys. Come south and I'll make up for the belated greetings. And Legate ages today. I hope you've had a good party and blew out all your candles. It helps to keep the lungs in good working order. (I should know. ![]() ![]()
