Second Nazgul Stuff grammar
To make adverbs, you put -arz on the end of the stem. Just like adjectives, only -arz.
I know what you mean about referring to two different people in third person. I also found that frustrating at first, but thing is, it's often clear from context which person you are talking about -- here black speech differs from English, as you can leave the subject understood with no pronoun -- or you can simply repeat the noun, which is the simplest and easiest solution. Though the latter does get repetitive after a while, it's not such bad form.
Okay, as suffix word-order goes --
fulug-tab-ishi = in his house
fulugugaz-tab-ishi = in his small house
Indirect objects are tricky. They're one of the most difficult and frustrating aspects of the language, so bear with me:
1. If the direct object is a pronoun, and the indirect object is not a pronoun, the direct object is attached to the verb and the indirect object is separate and follows. The suffix -u is attached to the indirect object.
Thrakul Scathazu = bring them to Scatha.
2. If the direct object is not a pronoun and the indirect object is a pronoun, the indirect object is attached to the verb with the suffix -u and the direct object is separate and follows.
Thrakulu nazgu = bring them rings
3. If neither the directnor the indirect object are pronouns, the indirect object comes after the direct object. Both are separate from the verb. The suffix -u is attached to the indirect object.
Thrak nazgu Scathazu = bring Scatha rings
4. If both the direct and the indirect object are pronouns, the direct object is attached to the verb and the indirect object follows. The suffix -u is attached to the indirect object.
Thrakul izishû = bring them to us
I'm doing this from memory, so if you have any more questions about word order, just say.
I leave you with this little gem: Latu ghashnut narsrinkhshârzusharzuradu. sharz = very, if it isn't in the dictionary.
Translate that sentence and you are a master at suffixes. :D
Yes, Riss, there is a great deal of grammar which was never released. I'm the oldest member of the Black Speech project still around, and I think the only one who knew Scatha, so I know a lot of grammar she taught me that was never officially put into lessons.
Participles are as follows:
Present: -ug (speaking)
Past: -uga (spoken)
Nice and simple.
Conditional tense works the same way as in English, except for one thing: you use the subjunctive tense. Subjunctive tense is simply the stem of the verb, just like the imperative.
As far as vocabulary goes -- use the Shadowlandian dictionary first. If it doesn't have the word, check the Red Hand Dictionary. If neither has it, make up a word. We do need new vocabulary.
If I want to translate: between Mordor and Orthanc, do I translate it to: Mordor-ri agh Orthanc;
