Précisément!
 
VANIMELDA: Most beautiful and beloved.
OSTLER: Troels gets mixed up with the horses? Well, it’s his job! We heard it in a song.
LEAF: One of a quartet that we were bidden (in song) to give the right of way.
UNDOMIEL: Deafening explosive reveals her in devastation.
MIDGEWATER MARSHES: Swamp where Ultravox have had a wee?
ERIADOR: Anger is reversed? What a fuss on the way here, though!

OLD MAN WILLOW: Showboat time? Sing! But trade a flower for a tree to reveal him.
NENYA: Two negatives: one French, one English, mingle circularly.
ERESTOR: A Latin queen, initially? Add mixed stock to reveal him.

Well, not *quite* precisely. It's NE + NAY. But perhaps I should have said 'slightly archaic English.' Although we still say it in Yorkshire, (together with thee and thou!) :D

Over to you! :)

Will put one up as soon as I decide what to use for my theme.

Urwen 03-20-2020 08:04 AM

Sorry for lateness. Here it is:

1. Muddled garb for him.
2. A hearing organ and a confused female horse mingle for this.
3. A boy and an endless bloomer join here.
4. A confused flower and a returned fib mingle for her.
5. Here, muddled wrath goes two ways.
6. A confused dwarf finds a way. For him.
7. Here, jumbled country has a vowel shift.
8. Here, a silent plosive is within a confused dog.
9. Stupid inn is here.

Pervinca Took 03-20-2020 08:47 AM

Is 2 EOMER, (a soundalike for EAR MARE?)

Urwen 03-20-2020 08:53 AM

If it were Eomer, I would have said 'for him', not 'for this'. I am sure he'd be thrilled to hear that you called him an object, though.

Pervinca Took 03-20-2020 08:54 AM

Easy to misread things when you have a lot on your mind.

Nice password, Urwen. Beleriand is one of Tolkien's nicest place names, I think.

1. Expeditious ray? He's quite translated!
2. Between the eagle and the hart? O sing!
3. Beloved tree.
4. It's all the Uruk-Hai think about!
5. Ventilating equipment disappeared, we hear? Another who's quite translated.
6. Luxuriant soul! Through chaos, see him.
7. Grishnakh's Nemesis (although why is anyone's guess).
8. Sorrow returns. Ask why. November begins. And there she stands.
9. A company who knows how to address a stag? After a fashion, and with (perhaps) a tone of regret?

Urwen 03-21-2020 05:28 AM

8. Eowyn (WOE backwards + Y + N)

Which with a tone (sound) could also double as the regretful 'Oh dear!'

Urwen 03-21-2020 02:49 PM

For 7, is it some variation of 'ORC FOE'? Because I can't seem to find anything....

Urwen 03-22-2020 06:15 AM

And 2 is OX.
