So, nobody seems to have taken a stab at Quenya (and I've got Quenya
tattooed on my arm....) so here it is.

Mine? Or the language?

So, do you have David Salo's Tengwar fonts? Or one encoded the same
way?

If not in Salo's encoding, here's the Tengwar by name (as I would
write it):

"Lambelya" : lambe a  umbar e lambe yanta a

"nai" :  ore a (short carrier) i

"hiruva" : hyarmen i romen u vala a

"sinomesse" : silme (nuquema if prefered) i numen o malta e esse
(again, may be nuquema) e


If you don't have any Tengwar fonts, I can send you an image....
