 Posted: Tue Jun 15, 2004 2:53 pm Post subject: Elvish names for sexual organs, techniques, etc. |
 |
|
| One of the things that often makes erotic fanfic more interesting, especially that featuring Elven characters, is on how sexuality (or at least, talking about sexuality) is filtered through culture and language. What do Elves call their naughty bits? What euphemisms do they use? Do they name techniques and positions? What names do they use? How is sexual intent communicated in non-sexual terms? Here is your chance to stretch your imagination. What names would you choose for the Elves to call their genitalia, sexual positions, other techniques? What about the states of arousal, climax, and post-intercourse? Everyone is welcome to contribute. Explainations for particular choices are encouraged too. |

Well, lets start with the basics.
An elvish 'manhood' (please - nobody say 'elfhood' it is cringe-worthy) is referred to as 'gweth' in Sindarin and 'vëa' in Quenya. However Tolkien probably meant this particular noun to be abstact and refer to the state of being 'male' 
'Maidenhood' is much the same (the state of being a maiden) is 'wendelë' in Quenya and there is no direct translation into Sindarin.
The closes we get in Sindarin is 'rodwen' which means 'noble virgin' or otherwise 'rod' meaning 'virgin.' ('Gweneth' being virginity) We can see the simlilaties between 'gweth' and 'gweneth.'
I'll leave it to everyone else to be creative.

I find it slightly amusing that 'rod' means 'virgin'...  |
