Description

Ithildin is a dictionary of the languages described in the work of JRR Tolkien. It is based on the Eldamo.org lexicon and contains a near-complete searchable vocabulary of those languages.

The original vocabulary presented in this application was conceived by J.R.R. Tolkien and compiled by the efforts of many, most notably Christopher Tolkien and the authors of Parma Eldalamberon and Vinyar Tengwar (Christopher Gilson, Carl Hostetter, Arden Smith, Bill Welden, Patrick Wynne, and others).

Paul Strack's Eldamo lexicon attempts to consistently organise that material, which adds up to many thousands of words in nearly fifty languages. This app is meant as a handy tool to search and access this vocabulary.

Features:
- very comprehensive: contains the complete Eldamo.org vocabulary (48 languages)
- searching for either Elvish words or English translations
- several search modes: wildcard (diacritic-insensitive), strict (diacritic-sensitive), begin- and end-of-word matching (useful to find rhyming words), verbatim and regular expressions
- includes community-created words (neo-Sindarin, neo-Quenya)
- roots, archaic words, community-contributed words and word reliability (is a word attested or speculative) are indicated by colour coding
- tapping a word opens a detail screen with glosses, examples, inflections, changes, cognates, elements, related words, variations and notes (where applicable)
- where applicable: tapping a linked word in a detail category or the notes opens the detail screen for that word
- configuration settings are stored locally in the app until changed
- no internet connection is required

Planned are:
- other translations besides English (most likely German and French first)
- UI internationalisation
- option to add user-created vocabulary
- option to share user-created vocabulary with other users
- extras like an Elvish / Shire calendar, star- and constellation names

If you want to know more about these languages: their grammar, phonology or history, or about scripts like Tengwar and many other resources, we kindly refer to https://eldamo.org and the Vinyë Lambengolmor server on Discord.
