I need to know what date 22nd September would be by Imladris reckoning. Does anyone know, or know a site where I could find out?
I'm translating LotR and that is my first problem.
If you're interested, here is the first little bit. This is all I have typed up right now (I have translated the first page and a quarter):
Mereth Anann Darthannen.
(A Feast Long Expected.)
Ir Hîr Bilbo Baggins o Bag End pent thelent vereth aglareb am mered edinor dín în vinig a haran, peded ovor pannant Chobbiton.

When Lord Bilbo Baggins of Bag End said that he intended a glorious feast to celebrate his 111 year birthday, abundant talk filled Hobbiton. Bilbo seemed jewel-blessed and eccentric (lit: alone-going) and in the Shire pricked the awakening of babbling for a long time, from his misty going to his return unlooked for. The jewels brought back from his journeys had established a village tale and numerous Hobbits knew, against the words of old Hobbits, the Hill at Bag End had caves filled with jewels. And if his glory these things had not established, his strength against years kindled thoughts.
Time flowed, but did not bother Lord Baggins. When he had 90 years, he seemed as he seemed when he had fifty. When he had 99 years they called him "well kept", but "unchanged" seemed a better flight of the arrow.
