Multiple vowels (like this: AA) stand for the length of time the vowel is said. (A) is always pronounced like the A in "f ther". (E) is pronounced like the E in "b t". When (E) is long, (written ee/EE) it is said for a longer period of time, and pronounced like the A in "l ke". (I) is always pronounced like the I in "mach ne".

Elen síla lúmenn' omentielvo is a Quenya greeting used by Frodo in the first meeting with Gildor Inglorion. It translates as "A star shines on the hour of our meeting". [1] Without the vocal assimilation it would be Elen síla lúmenna omentielvo, which Tolkien also translates as "A star shines upon the hour of the meeting of our ways". [2]

Elen sila lumenn' omentielvo, a star shines on the hour of our meeting
"Elen" is "star," and is written as "a star" because it's not plural, but Quenya doesn't have a singular indefinite article like English. "Sila" is "shines," that's the same. "Lume" is "time," and the "-na" is a case ending that means "on" or "at," so "at the time."
