In his house at R'lyeh, dead Cthulu waits in dreams.

Edit:

Considering the agglutinative nature of Mhoáruhn is obsolete, I guess I should edit this:

Tumuilonh ó choluító meiniáches Chlíuluinh ó teíchium um Ruéluínhem.

PRS.wait.3SG in LOC.dreams dead Cthulhu in LOC.house-his at LOC.R'lyeh
Literally: "Waits in dreams dead Cthulhu in his house at R'lyeh."

The Mhoáruhn name for Chlíuluinh is the closest I got to how Lovecraft intended it to be ([ˈχɬʊl.ɬuː]).

Aleco seems to be the only one to know better than to translate 100 % literally when there are less clumsy constructions available. For fun, why not also adapt the names to the native phonologies of the languages that we are translating into?

Hemma i Rilje bider döde Kutulju drömmande.

Like so, perhaps? Using 'vänta' in something like this is too casual for my tastes, as is the weak conjugation of 'bida'.

I guess native German words almost never end in <u> :D

Yeah, I was thinking of that too. I did make the effort in Folktongue (-w is fine, -u is not) but not in Swedish. Maybe Kutulje or just Kutul or Kutal or Kutel or something, then. Quickly straying away from the original name here.
