replying on Lorca: Canción del Jinete by Sasha 25 May 2004, 8:26 PM
Actually, what you just made fun of is Lorca's as well as mine:

En la luna negra
Sangraba el costado
De sierra morena.

It's my translation of Lorca, therfore it's both of ours.

Oh, one other thing.

If the word had been borrowed from Greek via Latin, then it could have a mute consonant ending (Like the borrowed "Iliad") but the romans took the greek upsilon ("u" sound) and always transcribed it with a "Y".

So the Romans never had it, the Greeks never had it.

I guess you must know more about Greek mythology than the Greeks themselves did.

I don't remember Tinuviel from any Greek mythology, and unless you can prove otherwise, I'm inclined to thinking you're BSing me. Here's why:

No greek words (including names) end in a Lambda or "L" sound It's always a vowel or Sigma or Nu.

Ancient Greek has no "V" sound.

So the name is obviously not Greek.

It's actually "Nightengale" in one of the Elvish languages Tolkein was making up with his more-abundant-than-is-healthy spare time.

This title means: "Covered in gold, in gold"

I'm sure any monkey with some caffein and refrigerator letter-magnets could do better.

But you moved to north carolina. Or was that just your IP.
on Sonnet Eighteen by devilishnutcase 19 May 2004, 7:40 PM
I could compare you to a summer’s day,
But see, you are far hotter and too sweet,
And summer is quite transient; will not stay
And after parting, leaves no one in heat.
Sometimes the pleasures in a summer’s glow
Leave one too lonely in their warmth too numb,
Without another heart that one can know
And in the night it fades to gloom and glum.

But see, your warmth and beauty shine a ray
That but grows sweeter in the thrill of night,
And leaves one yet in heat when you’re away,
And ever so your glory will bloom bright.
For you will shine, eternal as a star,
When these lines are forgotten as most are.
