- The Elvish tongues, Quenya and Sindarin, are far from complete, and there are many very simple English words for which we have no recorded translation. Grandfather is one of them. *Haru is neo-Sindarin for "wound". So sadly, no-one can help you here. --Ederchil (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 17:16, 2 November 2013 (UTC)
