   I have attempted to translate "my love" and "my sweet" into Elvish and found   
   that "melamin" and "lissamin" sound and look the most accurate after studying   
   the different phrases used to show ownership and then the words "love" and   
   "sweet" in Tengwar.    
   Could be incorrect but it works for me.
