[Guinevere]

I had almost forgotten about this! Now I have a closer look at this, it's easy !

"I hope I never smell the smell of apples again!" said Fili. "my tub was full of it. To smelll apples everlastingly when you can scarcely move and are cold and sick with hunger is maddening. I could eat anything in the wide world now, for hours on end - but not an apple!"

[Alcarillo]

Correct!

[Guinevere]

Thanks!
This time I'll try my hand at Norwegian (I hope it's not too short):

"Hei _______ !" (.....) " Så du er med på denne lille turen også? Hvor får vi seng og frokost?"

[Elanor]

Hm... I can understand a bit of Swedish, and one or two words there look familiar. Hm... Especially "frokost"...

I shall have to think.

[Guinevere]

Do you need a hint?
"seng" means bed

[Rune Son of Bjarne]

Well Danish and Norwegian are around 95 % the same. . .

"Hey _______ !" (.....) " So you are also on this little trip? Where do we get a bed and lunch?"

That is a more or less direct translation, but I don't remember it from the books.

[Guinevere]

Well, obviously, the hint wasn't necessary for you, Rune!
You still have to find the speaker and the situation , though; and the words aren't 100% exact. ( "frokost" is breakfast, and not lunch, or is that different in Denmark ?!)

[Rune Son of Bjarne]

'Hullo Pippin! he said. So you've come on this little expedition too? Where do we get bed and breakfast?'

Merry to Pippin in book 3 "the uruk-hai"

Frokost means lunch in Danish, but breakfast in Norwegian . . .I forgot

I think we got the word from German "Frühstück" (or something like that) and then we Danes mixed it up and thought it meant lunch, instead of breakfast.


I knew I had to get the whole thing. . . but I thought I would post it and give somebody else a chance to guess it.
