Feanor has got to be the most pathetic figure ever written.

WOW thanks Inoldonil for posting that, which HOME was that in?

That shows how far Feanor had fallen. Don't get me wrong about Feanor, it's not that I 'like' him as a person, ( few would ) it's just that I love reading about him and so he, shortly followed by Hurin Thallion is my favourite character of Tolkien's world.

You can read it in the last Volume, Vol. XII, Peoples of Middle-earth.

Your propensity for apt characterization truly astounds me, Afro elf.

To add: published in Vinyar Tengwar 41, JRRT noted:

Quote:

6) 'Amros Sindarin for Ambarussa. Had Amros Ambarto lived, it [i.e. the name Ambarto] would probably have been [Sindarized] as Amrod, but when[?encountered] at all in Sindarin form it was [?] Amarthan Fated One. S. ambart-> ammarth, amarth 'fate' = Umbarto'

Maedros, Maglor, Celegorm, Curufin, Caranthir, Amros, Amarthan

I take it that 'encountered' refers to encountered 'in text' but I suppose this name could refer to speech too, after all, Nerdanel's Umbarto had proven to be true.

Old thread, I know.

So the twins called each other Ambarussa, but 'Others called them Minyarussa and Atyarussa' ; i.e, 'First-russa and 'Second-russa'.

This from VT 41 again.
