The only thing that confuses me is the way the letters connect to each other, they end up looking like other letters. This is not a writing alphabet for the dyslexic, and I am slightly dyslexic. arghhhh. Thank you for teaching this, I am still trying to learn it.
So the days and nights passed and Melo nd Nessa gathered what little money they could in order to purchase their nice gifts. Neither of them were from high elven orders so what little they had was from many years of hard work and service to their city. This is where we find our two close friends sharing a nice evening at the home of Melo. "I cannot wait for the winterfest party." said Nessa. "It will be an exciting time for us for sure." replied Melo. "I notice that you still do not have a chain for your locket Nessa." said Melo. Nessa replied. "Yes, a locket is of little use without a proper necklace."
You could pair the to w letters with the 2 s, 2r and 2 z - and was there more. I gather the rules for all of them would be that one comes before vowel, one before consonant or the end.
This is the ONLY and i mean ONLY.... cant express that enough.... place i have found to read and write tengwar. what sucks is that it IS in fact in sindarin and i was really hoping or quenya since there are more words for quenya than sindarin. tolkien first started his work at the age of 18 in 1910 and it was call Qenya. i did not misspell that word. Qenya then was change later to quenya and thats the first lexicon ever made by tolkien himself and that then developed into sandarin as a alternative to the story line he created. at first he did not create this language to be a conversational language but he then decided to work on it for the books lord of the rings. in 1973 i believe it was he finished everything with barely any changes at all to the language. so given the age of this you can not find a TRUE teacher of the language just documentation and information on the teachings. Other people who have tried to teach this are USUALLY and almost always above 20% wrong on there information but this way of teaching shows less than a 10% error margin. i want to thank you for all the work you put into these videos. IF you ever decide to do the quenya mode of english to tengwar quenya mode then please let us al know. i subscribed so i will stay up to date. Thank you very much again as i have learned to read and write up to the point of this video so far.
I noticed one thing that is of importance for me in your videos. Since the "a" sound is different in "pan" then in "path" - is there a method to distinguish between these two sounds? This would matter in particular bc I'm German and we use different letters for these two sounds and distinguish between them a little more, also in pronounciation. The letter we use for the "a" sound in "pan" would be resembled by ä, whereas the one in "path" would just stay the normal "a"
Similar to this we have the letter "ö" for a sound that sounds a bit like a mixture between o and e, ü like a mixture between u and e (sometimes also written: ö=oe, ä=ae, ü=ue)
Cause it's English mode, it is just like that, for us to understand how it is written in Latin letters, cause pan and pen would make the same sound (German "ä"/ English "e"), and if you write them according to how they sound, that may confuse people (they would have to guess from the context), but both in Sindarin and Quenya, you just write the way the words sound (so you'd write the Tengwar E sound). :D I guess though, you've advanced in the last 10 months to know the answer to your question already. :D
I am not sure exactly because I do not speak Latin. However, you could use the same Tengwar system to phonetically sound out your words and language. It probably has been done already if you search for it.
Tengwar Teacher I did but for ejemplo the word {agua} the GUA how can you put it together and yes I google that in Latin alphabet there’s very little information but still have questions
Usually you would spell words phonetically. In this case, I am guessing it is pronounced agua (agwah) so i would use the Tengwar that makes use of the a g wa. Something similar.
It's a legendary feeling when you write a word and I know how to write it before you tell.
😢😭😭 THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOO MUCHHH
Bughead I could not Agree more, that truly makes the hard work worth it
I like every thing about this language
These videos are amazing! Thank you for all Master!
Thank you most excellent student! 🙂
I really like your videos, they help me a lot!
+Liesje Tpunt I am glad that they help. Thanks for watching! ^^
After learning this alphabet i will start learning the language
Did you learn it yet?

So vowels are placed above the consonant that they come before?

what are the differences ?
doenst the v in invade receive a top "stripe" since it was after an n
Thank you so much
Thank you for watching!
sometimes i forget that tengwar has been adapted for other languages besides the elven langauges, I always thought it looked weird tbh lol
I hear 'with' mostly like 'widh' (soft th like thy, not thigh) from native English speakers, especially 'with or without you'.
I know there's a ä (ae) sound in tengwar, but where is the rest of the last letters in the scandinavian alphabets, å and ö?
Is there a difference between the three lines representing a and the three dots
Or do they mean something different
They mean the same thing. It’s just a style difference. It is always “a”.
8:15 thats the funny part of it.
I believe time would also be an acceptable answer to the previous riddle
Well time was my answer too

where can i find a alphabet of the langue he is writing in?
+TheMDGamers Google Tengwar alphabet.
How can’t this be translated to the Latin alphabet ? Because our pronunciation is way diferent than the English pronunciation
