| The name given by [[Hobbits]] to the river the [[Elves]] called [[Baranduin]]
| | #REDIRECT [[Baranduin]] |
| | |
| The English name 'Brandywine' is meant to be a translation of the [[Westron]] words ''Branda-nîn'' (borderland-water) and ''Bralda-hîn'' (heady ale), both being [[Hobbitish]] alterations of the original Elvish name ''Baranduin''.
| |
| | |
| The name ''Brandywine'' therefore both resembles the original word ''Baranduin'', and expresses the Hobbitish meanings as well, consisting thus an ideal translation from Westron.
