Well gee whiz, I need to check out Active Topics more often! I didn't even know this thread existed until today! Thanks for the well wishes way back last month, Legate and Lommy.
And happy birthday to Holby! I wish TomBrady12 was till around to get wellwished- Prisoner of Numenor saw him come and disappear ..... |

Thank you all for the birthday wishes!! And ghastly decorations!
I did enjoy my day-the wee ones cleaned up, made breakfast in bed (I got to sleep in till 10:00!) and did their very best not to squabble with each other. The hubby took me out for the evening. I miss 33 'cause 3 is my favorite number but I love the thirties!! Thanks again for the greetings

Hyvää syntymäpäivää, dancing spawn!
I'd love to say more, but it'd be for your ears only. (Yes, I really mean ears. )

It's no wonder Tolkien used Finnish as a basis for Quenya. It just looks so beautiful to read .... if I'm sounding it out right .... or even if I'm not.
How does ä work alone? How does it work when paired with another? |

Happy birthday to Spawnie!
Well, exactly: erittäin hyvää syntymäpäivää, Anna! (Ja kannatan tuota isäni "lausuntoa": täytynee neuvotella tapaamisesta! )
Toivottavasti sulla on tosi ihana päivä! Quote:

Happy birthday spawn! You'll have to tell us what Lommy, Noggie and Volo have been saying to you ... once you've recovered from what will hopefully be a fantastic celebration.

Well as a matter of fact, Brits and Americans speak these particular words very differently. It would be hard for me to describe it without merely causing confusion by means of examples that don't hold any better than the words we're talking about themselves! (I hope that made sense )
Anyway, back to birthdays..... (sorry for the linguistic chat) |

Thank you very much, guys! Paljon kiitoksia synttärionnitteluista!
As you can see from Hookbill's lovely photograph, the celebration was positively riotous indeed. Unfortunately Frodo passed out at some point, but Sam and I had a ball. ps. Kiitos kutsusta, palataan asiaan. pps. As to the Finnish ä-sound, you can check the pronunciation by typing the words 'happy' and 'dad' into The Free Dictionary and listening to the sound files about how they have pronounced them to hear the difference between 'ä' and 'ää', respectively.

Congratulations Boromir, all the best I wish thee!
I just had to post, especially since you're the one who first made me think of joining the Downs.

Well a double happy birthday then. How lucky is Nerindel to have the same birthday as the 'Downs!?
