By the way, I just noticed that for Arwen's sword in the films, the person who invented the Elvish for the blade does not use the mirrored tilde above 25 for -rw- in
arwen [again in the Mode of Beleriand] -- for the sword and -rw- 'they' rather employ 25 [romen] then 24 [see the same chart I linked to already].
So far I can't find a Tolkien-written example of -rw- in this mode. I did find both -gw- and -dw- in one version of a text called the
King's Letter [posthumously published in
Sauron Defeated] where Tolkien wrote the words
Gwirith edwen in, it seems, a full mode.
Tolkien employs the mirrored tilde here in any case, above the letter.
However, even though this appears to be a 'full mode' is it the mode of Beleriand? In
Vinyar Tengwar 29 there is an analysis of this letter [by Arden Smith] that includes:
'This mode differs from the mode of Beleriand used in the Moria-gate inscriptions and the hymm to Elbereth primarily in its treatment of nasals and velars.'So... ah... well I'm not expert enough to say which version is 'correct'. I do know that no version of the
King's Letter was published by Tolkien himself in any case, as this letter went with the abandoned epilogue to
The Lord of the Rings.At first there was to be an epilogue to
The Lord of the Rings, for any who might not know
