Re: Hello from the Czech Republic
Welcome, Marmota!
I'm Islie, and I'm a talking she-giraffe. I like to weave and write and draw. I'm not around all that much because of being a busy college student, but I wanted to say hi anyway
I hope you enjoy TLC!

They might not need me but; they might.

A smile as small as mine might be
Precisely their necessity.

Hello! I'm not around much, either! I signed up months ago, but only now got around to actually properly visiting and posting.

Re: Hello from the Czech Republic
Hiya!
I've seen you around on Fanfiction, but I'm not sure if we've ever officially met! Around here I go by Jaygee! (Gpys and Cor call me Jaygers sometime. Dunno why, but if you like that, you can use it, too.). I'm a Christian homeschooler. Can't remember a time when I wasn't a Narnia fan...
Recently watched Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit and loved Battle of the Five Armies, in an "I'm about to cry the whole time" kind of way. I'm not allowed to read the books.
I like reading, writing, hanging out on TLC, and playing with my younger cousins. I play the piano and like to sing.
I've also got a cousin called Aygee floating around somewhere.
Hope to see you around!

Re: Hello from the Czech Republic
Heya! I'm Tenny
I'm not sure how to introduce myself. I'm homeschooled, I like horses, I'm in love with my job in real life, and I love to write.
I'm obsessed with Horse and His Boy, and I love King Lune.
I'm a mod around here so if you have any questions, let me know.
Currently I'm starting a
new school year and have kinda been swallowed by it.
I'm glad you have joined and I hope to see you around more! Welcome to the ranks of TLC

Re: Hello from the Czech Republic
@marmota: ooh, koláče looks delicious (and hobbit-y! I can totally see Bilbo eating those). Do they take the place of the cakes that he serves the dwarves?
Oh yeah, Tenny's post reminded me: here on TLC, I'm a mod in the writing threads and co-contributor for the writing contests and the YouTube channel. And substitute leader of our weekly writers' group.

@Marmota: Wow, I am much impressed! Sounds like a lot of work but I'm sure it's worth it in the end.

Re: Hello from the Czech Republic
Seed cakes in particular - we don't have those, so they got replaced by poppy seed koláče. But if I remember correctly, there's also mention of quark/curd koláče, so it probably replaced more things; I'd have to look it up and, full disclosure, I only have The Hobbit in English! We always borrowed the Czech book from our uncle.Ariel.of.Narnia wrote:@marmota: ooh, koláče looks delicious (and hobbit-y! I can totally see Bilbo eating those).

Re: Hello from the Czech Republic
Hi Marmota, welcome to TLC. It's always exciting to have people from different parts of the world. I'm Ajnos, the talking South African Hedgehog. I'm a Christian lady-hog in my twenties. I'm currently working on my PhD in Ancient Greek linguistics. I'm also one of the staffies on the site. It's great to see you already getting involved on the forum. See you around.
Thank you for the set Happy!!

Re: Hello from the Czech Republic
@marmota: that's so cool. Now I'm wondering what Bilbo serves them in, like, Chinese translations....

Re: Hello from the Czech Republic
I'm Lady Albero/Berry/Alli, dormouse-dryad, Royal Scrivener of Fanfictions, and Knight of TLC, at your service, ma'am.
I like cute animals, books, movies, talking, and food. Food especially.
I'm a homeschooled teenager, and I live in the Midwest. I'm sort of short (is 5'2 short for a teenager?), and I spend most of my time with my puppy, Loki. In fact, he's curled up next to me on the couch as I'm writing this.
Also...I'm curious how you change the gender of a noun in Czech. Because you were saying that, in Czech, Glimfeather is a girl because it was easier to translate it that way, which makes me think that in Czech it must be harder than in Latin, the only foreign language that I know much of. You can PM me and we can talk about it.
Bye!
