thank you, Galin!
This morning, I decided, that instead of spelling the words phonetically, I'm going to spell them exactly as they are. Far less confusing, and I will feel more confident that they're correct. The only remaining question is, since I'm transcribing English into Tengwar, could I use the Quenya or Sindarin modes, or do I have to use carriers for each of the tehtar? I saw somewhere that someone had done this and claimed it to be the "English" mode for tengwar. I personally think the way the tattoo looks in the Quenya mode is pretty neat, I like it alot, but I'm shooting for accuracy now.
