Linguistic Convoy

Imagine linguistics as one of the most intriguing board games. If the first tree that comes to your mind is syntactic, if you find ambiguity rather exciting than annoying, if you can easily visualise Chomsky being chased by crazy functionalists, if you are familiar with things such as "wugs", "ghoti" and horses being raced past a barn...then all you have to do is roll the dice. We`ll show you through the tableau...Are you brave enough to join the convoy?

J.R.R Tolkien’s love for languages was fueled by his mom who taught him Latin, French and German at home. He then went on to be a professional philologist of ancient Germanic languages, specializing in Old English. During his career, he also picked up many other languages including Welsh, Finnish and Old Norse. His vast understanding of languages helped him create many conlangs of his own, such as Finnish morphology in Quenya or Welsh phonology in Sindarin. For Tolkien, a language can’t exist without its own culture, history. Thus, he worked tirelessly to give a distinct identity to each and every of his conlangs.
