I am trying to find how, if it's possible, to say 'happy birthday' in Elvish. I've looked online, but haven't run across anything concrete. Someone has asked about it for a birthday cake. I'll keep looking, but thought maybe I could get a quick easy answer here.

TIA

You'll have to hunt down Gina and ask her.

How concrete does it really have to be when it's a made-up language?

It seems to me like years ago there was a book on the lanuages Tolkien used in his bood. (Late 70's)

I found this...

Aur Onnad Meren!
Our oh-nahd mare-ehn!
Happy Birthday!

Garo arad-o-onnad 'elir!
Gah-roe ah-rahd-oh-on-nahd eh-leer!
Have a happy birthday!

Ok, that's in Quenya. You didn't specify which Elf language so I'm going to assume you meant Quenya. All the classy elves speak Quenyan; none of that low-class trailer park Tolkien nonsense.

What I was thinking of must have been this and it was early 80's, my copy has long vanished.
