What are the evlish words for "out" and "house"?

From what I can find right now out would be "et"- (which is a prefix), and house is "coa". I guess you could put them together and get "etcoa" for "outhouse".

I am getting these from a Quenya wordlist I found on google. It may be different in Sindarin.

I was trying to come up with Thread killer a while back, but there is no word for "kill" in elvish according to that site.... So the best I can do is thread=lain plus death=gurthu, or gwanno for laingurthu or laingwanno....

As far as bathroom goes, I think theirs would be more like wind chambers, if you know what I mean ;^)

Thus we could have wind=gwaa or gust of wind=gwam combined with chamber=sam or samm to have gwaaasam or gwamsamm....

Get thee to the Gwamsamm, Elrond!

Hmmmmm....this is going to be fun!
