The folks at Gwaith-i-Phethain, The Fellowship of the Word-smiths on the Elendilion website, have just finished analysing and translating the Sindarin dialogue from The Hobbit: Battle of the Five Armies.

They’ve set up a page with and with translations of the Sindarin dialogue of Tauriel, Galadriel, Legolas, etc. by Hungarian linguist Gábor Lőrinczi.

As with their previous analyses, these translations are all based on incomplete script fragments and from listening to the dialogue, so they tell us it is speculative to some extent and will probably be refined over coming weeks.

If you have a thought or correction, they will welcome your assistance!

Go check it out.
