Présentation Cemendil

[Lomelinde]

Alla Cemendil !

Voilà, sinon, je me suis inspiré du nom du quatrième Roi du Gondor pour faire mon pseudo, Cemendur.

Et ce choix est effectivement typiquement humain, comme l'explique Tolkien (PE17 p. 152) :

Elendil 'Ælfwine', 'Elf-friend' is probably < eled-nil. The frequent endings in proper names are derived [not without influence from one to another which produced the virtual suffixes -nil/ndil/dil/ beside -nur/ndur/dur] from √NIL, ndil- & √DUR. √NIL means to love as a friend or equal, √DUR to show special interest in things such as trees, astronomy, gems, medicine, sea, &c.; but the distinction is not always made (especially not by men such as the Númenoreans). The earliest name with -ndil applied to other than persons is eärendil (or shorter eärnil), of which the purer Elvish would be earendur (earnur). But Earendil's father was a Mortal!
Thus according to the Elven-Loremasters more correct are Elendil (if of Elves not stars), Valandil, and Amandil [since the Blessed Land may be held to = Manwë, or all the Valar]. Permissible also is Eärendil, if really referring to the "Lord of Waters", one of the chief Valar and unchanging friend of Elves and Men. But Meneldil and Anardil are "mannish" since menel = 'the firmament' not "Heaven", and anar the physical Sun.
