Add Elvish unstressed words to list files
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
I went through the conjunctions and prepositions listed in the Ambar
Eldaron Quenya Dictionary [1] and the Omikhleia Sindarin Dictionary [2]
and added all the ones with a single light syllable to the list as
unstressed (with one exception). I think this improves the way some
texts are read a little bit (though I have to admit I find it hard to
tell the difference).
