I know what they mean, but will it please you if I ask, or would that not be the same?

I have a question for you elvellon. I see your from Hungary. Does the Hungarian(sp) version of "Fellowship of the Ring", have a different title, of the translation mean something else?
BTW: TTT=The Two Towers/ROTK=Return of the King.

Not sure Birdie, but I have a suspicion that HoME might be History of Making Eggnog
On second thoughts, TS may well be JRRT's world famous dessert recipe book, Tirami Su. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

hmm...eggnog.. let's see... eggnog is gross, that's all i know about it. so, basically, i can't answer your question, and i'm bored, la la la....... hmm.... i'm trying to think of a funny meaning for FOTR, and i'm soooo close, but i can't think of a good word for R that goes with the rest of it... i guess i'm too stupid to do this!

FotR stands for Fit of the Ranger. You see, what actually happened when Sam questioned Aragorn was that he had a fit. They later edited this out to make him seem more noble, but somehow managed to overlook the title.
TTT stands for The Terrible Twos, referring to Faramirs baby daughter who had just entered her second year of ages. Originally, she had a very important part (she accidentally killed Gollum). This too was edited out, and the title left. ROTK stands for Return Our Troublesome Kangaroo. This refers to the Hobbits demanding back their town Kangaroo in Hobbiton, which the ruffians had stolen. Tolkien decided that this was a stupid idea, and completely destroyed all evidence of it. Unfortunately, being absentminded as he was, he again forgot the title. |

Fry Our Tomatoes, Ranger!
Toast Teacakes, Treebeard! Roast Our Turnips, King! Both cast and crew soon became tired of Merry and Pippin's none too subtle way of broadcasting their demands for the on-set canteen.
