well,two of them are most famous and most "learnable"- Quenya and Sindarin, but he created at least ten other languages but there is less information about them

if you are interested the easiest is to simply read the lotr appendix.
it contains all the info you need on languages in ME

A fair few.


So you can Write, read and speak all those languages and would ever have to use Engilsh again, or are they only partly complete?

we know little about most of them, for example Telerin, Nandorin or Dunlendish
most of them were little known or were beginning to be forgotten in the third age
and languages such as the Taliska evolved into Adunaic.

How many of those languages have enough written about them so that you could actually learn them if you wanted to though TM?

as Aredhel said only Quenya and Sindarin
I have a friend that owns a Quenya-German dictionary just to bring that up as a fact.
so there are such books available

Aredhel -- I've never seen that word in any of Tolkien's Elvish languages. The usual greetings used are "suilad", "mae govannen", and "mae tollen" (all of which are in Sindarin). Where, may I ask, did you see the word aaye used?


In any case though, welcome to TF.

hehe...I doubt you can really say who
I am sure there are many people really crazy about Tolkien's world
but beeing too crazy makes you lose contact with the real world and isn't that good either

I doubt you can say he is the greatest fan in the world though as you don't know all the fans in the world. I will say the webmaster of this site however.

well...you can't really...let's say judge that
though I would personally judge the fanatics by time spent for tolkien matters, and perhaps money spent for that
and The One is definitely spending a lot of time for this site

Aye. Have you noticed that there is always a new thing to the site? The Gallery has extended almost twice its size since it was staarted about 7 weeks ago! The Ranking kingdoms avatars are expanding to. New thiongs happen to the forums like the banner and poll updates every Sunday/Monday.


The Only thing that needs sorting now is the quotes page...

Yeah the Galadriel one is good. I like em becuase they are animated. I am helping The Great One () finding some new avatars at the moment - the Aragorn one will be changed into something even more animated.

sorry but I dunno what you mean
I think that the four letters coincidently formed a nasty word and were blended
what was that word?
you can post the letters with a space b e t w e e n them

that was just a saying-to describe his love to Tolkien's work, why do you guys take everything so seriously here?

hehe I was talking about my Cartman as Gandalf avatar
I am also a big fan of South Park, and the lotr episode is one of my favourites...
always like when Cartman calls Kyle jew instead of paladin...hehe
anyway, the avatars should be lotr related so this is the only way to find an avatar both southpark and lotr related
