I noticed that no-one had posted here for almost a fortnight. Why not be the first in a while? I confess that I used an anagram generator for these. I'm just not good enough <img src=wink.gif ALT="">

1. TSUNAMI TIM SONY (Geographical Feature, 2 words)

2. MENTOR OWL (A Lesser Geographical Feature, 2 words)

3. EIGHT HURL TWIN (A person/thing, 1 word)

What would the world be without anagram generators? <img src=biggrin.gif ALT="">

Re: Keep the Anagrams coming!

Ugh! I totally forgot to bring my Complete Guide to Middle Earth with me today to help me solve those other two! I guess it will have to wait until Monday. I'm off to ski this weekend! <img src=roll.gif ALT=":rollin">

Anagram generator

enep, could you e-mail me that program or tell me where I can download it? I've never answer to anagrams questions, because my level of English isn't good enough to create new ones.

Re: Anagram generator

Oh rats. When the anagram forum was deleted so was my link to Brendan's anagram generator. ARGH! <img src=tongue.gif ALT=":b"> I will have to search for it, and when I find it again I shall post it nothing short of immediately. Fear not, Grond! <img src=smile.gif ALT="">

Odysseus has success! Misty Mountains is correct! <img src=biggrin.gif ALT="">

Alright, let's see...
  • It's not a person.
  • It consists of 3 words.
  • It appears in the FOTR movie.
Was that enough? (It's hard for me to figure if these hints are good, because I know the solution...)

2. REEKING LASS (2 words - too easy!)
3. HERO MAN TEE NUN (2 words)
4. RATTAN LOCO RANGER (2 words)
5. I SHIELD OUR FIR (3 words)
6. DUNHARROW DIRGE FREED LOST (4 words)
7. SANK HARD STEEL WITH STAR ON BROW (6 words)

Hey guys! Please try these. I spent hours doing them. (I made half a dozen anagrams each for #6 and #7. I did NOT use an anagram generator.) Do you need a hint or two?

You must have #1 already and probably #2 as well. They will lead you to the rest.

Alright, I think I know No. 1-5:
1. ESTEL
2. KING ELESSAR
3. THE NUMENOREAN
4. ARAGORN TELCONTAR
5. HEIR OF ISILDUR
But can you give me a hint on 6 and 7, please?

Great Sîdhrîs!

Hmmm, hints for #6 & #7. How do I do this without giving them away?

#6 'goes with' #1 thru #5.

#6 & #7 are the same, but not the same.

Well done Sîdhrîs!!! And thanks for the cudos.

I enjoyed making them up. I figured there must be at least one good anagram from all of Aragorn's names, titles and descriptors. (He was my fave even before Viggo.) And since I'm never likely to solve another anagram anyone posts, I thought I would take my only chance and post all the anagrams I could.
