Translation help

 

 

Greetings learned ones!

I set out on a journey to translate the name of my Blades guild into Dovahzul and quickly saw that I was a "master" in one realm but a whelp in this one.  The name of the guild is Balmora Adventurers Guild.  
 

My learning has increased vastly searching through your archives with my Tome of Shocks.   Is: Baalmorah Bovitanne Tokah correct?

Please confirm or correct and please help with Dovahzul text.  I did something befor but I forgot the plural adventurers, before I try again I reach out for graciousness

Thanks

Using, canon Dovahzul, you can translate "Balmora Adventurers Guild" into:

"Balmora Zeymahzin do Wunduniikke"

Zeymahzin - Brotherhood (group of like-minded people, in this case)

Wunduniikke - Plural of Traveler (Wunduniik)

Balmora remains the same because it's a place name.

Thank you for your time. 
 

I found the other words outside the canon. I will switch. I put some work into "Balmora" because I want to translate the whole phrase into runes. Was this misguided?
