It's so hard to put them on a drawing together. He's 7 feet and the Haladin are described as small. I think I made Haleth around 5'5 which makes her a tall Haladin woman. But she's still so smoool
I think the fact that Húrin (high-ranking, but Edain) knew enough Quenya to come up with a catchy battle-cry on the spot (i.e. Aurë entuluva) in response to Fingon's (Utúlie'n aurë!) says a lot about how effective the Quenya ban was at actually banning Quenya.
in 2026 i am wishing for all of us the energy of bilbo baggins, who was headhunted for an extremely well paid role he had no qualifications or experience for, blagged the interview, and within his first week found a magic ring that does the job for him
wait help me out here does gil-galad have any speaking lines in tolkien's writings or have I spent the last year and a half going insane over a guy with no canon dialogue
Gonna chill out the rest of May and then change my entire life in June. Possibly July if that doesn't work out. Certainly no later than September or October.
I guess posts have been made about where you can find references on Sindarin, Quenya, Nandorin, Old Elvish, and Noldorin among others on Tumblr but I wanted to make my own list (so I can come back to it when I need it). If you know a website you'd like me to consider for my list, please just mention it to me.
Ambar Eldaron – Sindarin and Quenya dictionaries and courses
Ardalambion – Website about the sounds of Tolkien's languages and their grammar
Automatic Quenya translator – English to Quenya and back

Glæmscrafu – This website explores the sounds of Tolkien's invented languages and includes several texts and poems
Gwaith-i-Phethdain, The Fellowship of the Word-Smiths – Very detailed page by Ryszard Derdzinski. Many poems and calligraphies. Particularly noteworthy are the translations of the Elvish texts and songs from the film trilogy.
Hiswelokë's Sindarin Dictionary – A Sindarin and Noldorin dictionary that was started in 1999 and then went on hiatus in 2008
I Lam Arth – Aaron Shaw's site with a series of in-depth articles on Sindarin

Sindanórie – Site by Roman Rausch with articles on Telerin and word overlaps between the Elvish and real languages, poems, sound files, etc.
Tecendil – If you want to see what your name or others look like in Elvish script
