Just before the end of the credits, where they start with the dedications and appreciations there is an elven phrase/quote
"Me mahara tonu tatou nga Uri-apakura no tuanuku nei, no te waotu, te tu kekehua ana o nga eldarin kua hohou mai i te uru-moana"
Anyone able to translate? I looked around at a few elven dictionaries but most of the words don't seem to match up. Any help here?
Thanks

Haha, I've got an idea what it is! Do the Maiori (You know, the native New Zealanders, no idea how to spell it!) have thier own language? That could be it!

Whoohoo, we hath found it:
Maori:
"Me mahara tonu taatou nga Uri-aapakura noo tuaanuku nei, noo te waaotuu te tu kekehua ana o ngaa Eldarin kua hohouu mai i te Uru-moana."
English translation:
“Let us dedicate our memories to the spirits of the Eldar who came to us from the Ocean that lies to the West.”
Thanks to TORn for that!
