Haha, not quite. Shall I give a hint? /m/ in /sochm/ and /alim/ marks a plural.

I look for soldiers and find elves in heavy silence?
I look for socks and meet aliens in high sleet?
Any combination of the above?
/m:ite/ for mhite? /mwite/?

Those are fantastic guesses and make me wish they were the answer but, unfortunately, they are not.  Haha, I laughed out loud at those. You should post 'em on a separate thread as a translation excercise, I would totally do them. Or I could just do that here, I suppose. 
As for /mhite/, yeah! [mwite]! :applauding emoticon:

So, were any of the new words right? You don't really make it clear...

For something to do, if anyone's interested you could take a shot at this:
bëld rá śerdeta corra isiséniðúnih dälawc gyd budunébajawc.
This language is related to ra cel, to not leave you totally in the dark if you want to guess. |

Ok, let's start with some intuitive guesses 
How about this:
/b@ld 4a: Se4deta kora isise:niDu:nih d&lawk gyd budune:bajawk/
is any of that correct? |

Great! You got most of it! Bolded parts are correct. There's some variation in some of the sounds so I won't be too nitpicky about them, but you haven't quite got the base phonemes of what's left. |

Hey, that's great
Let's try this variant:
/p&ld r\a: Ser\teTa kora isise:niDu:nix tAlawk gyt pudune:padZawk/
I have no idea what the umlaut/trema means and what are the confines for the (apparent) allophony in <d> |

I guess the @ didn't show up in bold very well - that was actually right. Or maybe I just forgot to include it in my answer.
The umlauts show a shift in vowel pronunciation but not necessarily rounding.
You got /d/ - it devoices around certain vowels, voiceless consonants, and word-finally.
Think more simply along the lines of /r/. If it's causing confusion, in /corra/ the double r is actually more like [R] than [r]. /h/ and /j/ may be the most difficult.
If anyone's interested, once I finish my current TC in this lang I could put up some info about it. |

I was thinking simply, when I guessed [4] for <r> everything else for me is not simple at all  (I'm Latvian)
I peeked at the ra cel thread. Does <j> stand for [dz\]?
Does <ä> stand for [æ]? (IPA)
As for the <h>, is it dorsal~glottal? |

I'll give you /r/... it's [r]. I figured the trill was the other most common pronunciation of /r/ next to [4], but maybe my exposure to natlangs is much more narrow than I thought.
/j/ is not [dz\], though it would be a good guess. It is not an apical or laminal consonant, if that helps.
Yes, /ä/ is [æ]. Good job. Just a couple more!
/h/ is glottal, and can be one of two sounds depending on environment, sort of like /d/. |
