Okay - I'm planning a story ( don't worry I haven't given up on my other ones) and need the Sindarin word for windmill....
I know, they didn't have any.... but if they had had, what would they have called it? |

Windmill -- 'Haelgaud' which means most literally, 'wind machine' Something like 'haesûl' or 'gwaetán' would also work.
Magic Light (from the group posting) -- 'angail' or 'angolial' (Litterally 'magic bright light') 'limangol' (Literally 'Magic clear, sparkling light')

thanks, I posted twice. I didn't realise I was going to get such prompt answers. I thought this would be difficult.
How about washing machine (like the ones our grandparents had)?
