Why do I somehow get the feeling I am writing a condensed Quenya Grammar-book?

Ok, to build adverbs is in principle very easy: just add -vë to the adjective e.g. saila - sailavë.
When the adjective ends in -ë, this ë changes into i e.g. morë - morivë.
When the adjective ends in -n, then -nvë changes into -mbë (because the cluster nv is not allowed in Quenya): latin - latimbë.
Yassë engë lómë, anarties calali.
