About this app

This app allows you to convert Latin text to a number of alphabets from Middle-earth. It uses a mostly language-neutral correspondence between Latin and Tengwar letters. This is called transliteration. Note that this is different from translation!

Supports:

- Cirth; Angerthas Erebor (Khuzdul, Sindarin, Quenya, Westron will be supported in the future)
- Tengwar for Elvish Quenya (Sindarin will be supported in the future)
Write in Elfish / Dwarfish scripts: elven alphabet transcription

Good app, but there are some bugs I'd like to see fixed. For instance, a Tolkien nerd will know there's two versions of 'r', one for the middle of words and one for endings, and in the app, it automatically renders which form of 'r' is output based on whether you type something after it or not. This is ok, and accurate for the most part, but when you type a long vowel carrier after 'r' in the middle of a word, the app appears to understand that as ending that word. It then gives the ending form.

It's so far a great app. I'm still learning how to use it however. I deducted a full star for two reasons. The first being that the app is not so much a translation app, as it is a hook, or a sales gimmick. The app is actually an ad for Jen Hansen Rings. They made the LOTR rings. They want to sell you a ring. Also to get the elvish script like the one in the movie, you have to pay a one time fee. The above being said I highly recommend this app. Oh yeah you can copy, share, other options.

I've been writing Tengwar (West-gate, full vocalic) for over 50 years; have used thousands of programs on a half dozen mainframe, mini, micro, PC, and even Apple platforms; & have used hundreds of apps on both PalmOS & Android -- I can't make any sense of this app. Perhaps a word or two about how to use the damn thing would be useful? even better, help, or a short guide?
