Text: Aesop 093: The Mouse & the Weasel

Word-aligned text for review or study.

Each word-block has the following lines:
- the Quenya word in tengwar
- the Quenya word in romanized/latinized transcription
- the lexical annotation, if any
- the matched inflection rule that produced the form
- the lemma for the form (link to its paradigm page)
- the translation of the form, from the lemma gloss

If the form is ambiguous, some lines will be missing or show different information. Special values for the translation are:
- * = lemma not unique
- + = lemma unique, but multiple rules match
- ? = the lexical annotation leaves no match

Hovering over a word block will given the full explanation of the rule-tag listed in the block for brevity. Clicking on a Quenya word in the text, or a word block (other than on the lemma link), will blink the corresponding text word and/or word block.
