After much thought and consideration, I have decided to make a permanent change to how the Dwarrow Scholar project operates. Effective immediately, all Dwarrow Scholar Neo-Khuzdul lessons, grammar resources, and educational materials, both past and future, are now completely FREE for everyone.
Over the years, this project has grown far beyond what I originally imagined. What began as a personal fascination became a community effort involving learners, readers, researchers, and Tolkien enthusiasts from around the world. Because of that, I have come to believe that the best and only future for this work is one where it remains freely accessible to everyone who wishes to learn from it.
My goal has always been the preservation, development, and sharing of Neo-Khuzdul. By removing all paywalls, I hope to help ensure that this work remains available to both current and future generations of learners.
Patreon will remain the primary home of the course, with new lessons, downloads, grammar files, exercises, dictionaries, and supporting materials continuing to be released here. In the coming months, I will also begin releasing the lesson videos publicly on YouTube, allowing even more people to discover and learn the language. Furthermore, the website itself is currently undergoing an overhaul, which will include the addition of nearly 100 new and updated documents.
To everyone who has supported this project over the years, thank you. Your support helped fund the research, hosting, software, lesson creation, videos, voice actors, artwork, website development, and countless hours that made these resources possible. Quite simply, much of what exists today would not exist without you.
This work has never truly belonged to me alone. It has become part of a wider community of learners, enthusiasts, and friends, and I am incredibly proud of what we have built together.
The gates are open, and they shall remain open.
