How Do You Say ‘My Love’ in Elvish?
Elvish isn’t just a language—it’s poetry. Rooted in Tolkien’s mythos, Elvish words evoke elegance, magic, and timeless emotion. When it comes to romance, few phrases carry the weight and beauty of the words “my love.” So, how do you say my love in Elvish?
Let’s take a walk through Middle-earth and explore the Elvish ways to express affection, devotion, and eternal connection.
“My Love” in Elvish (Quenya and Sindarin)
Tolkien developed multiple Elvish languages, but the two most complete are Quenya and Sindarin. Here's how to say “my love” in both:
📜 Quenya: Melmelya
(Pronounced: MEL-meh-lya)
Melmë = love
-lya = your (possessive suffix)
So technically, melmelya means “your love,” but it's often interpreted romantically as “my beloved” or “my love.”
🌿 Sindarin: Meleth nîn
(Pronounced: MEH-leth neen)
Meleth = love
Nîn = my
Simple and powerful, this is the form most often used in Tolkien’s romantic Sindarin phrases.
Use Them in a Romantic Phrase
Want to say something truly swoon-worthy? Try these:
“You are my love” → Nai elyë melmelya (Quenya)
“Forever my love” → Anann meleth nîn (Sindarin)
Elvish isn’t about direct translations—it’s about feeling. Every phrase feels like a spell of devotion.
