Dear Diary: I fooled Gimli!
Posted by Kalina on Jun 3, 2009
It’s Legolas here, the prettiest elf in Middle-Earth. Today I fooled Gimli into thinking that a phrase in Elvish meant something completely different. (Of course, I changed it to something that was believable) I told him Legolas Onen Thranduil i-Estel Eldar, u-chebin estel anim means Legolas son of Thranduil is the prettiest elf, and can boss the others around. And of course, being a Dwarf and not knowing anything about my wonderful language, he fell for it completely!!! The actual phrase is Onen i-Estel Edain, u-chebin estel anim which means I gave hope to the Dunedain, I have kept no hope for myself. Seriously, Dwarves can be so clueless! Even I, a natural blond, am smarter than most of them!
Well, I have to go pack my essentials for our trip to Helm’s Deep. Gimli’s fascination with glittery objects is quite amusing.
I will write as soon as I can.
Legolas
