The majority of the Elvish i know is Sindarin. Don't get me wrong, I'm no where near a fluent elvish speaker.(but thats why I made this guild (to teach and learn Elvish)).
Personally, I like Quenya more than Sindarin. Both in how its written, and how its said. Quenya is harder to pronounce than Sindarin but thats why i like it more. (its a challenge).

for all those people who are wondering where the Elvish dictionary is, its actually too long to post in the forums, but you can find it here.

For beginners, I would advise them to go to either Ardalambion (it is a very thorough site for beginners and provides much imformation about Tolkien himself and his other works.),or Council of Elrond (very good also, it contains an english-sindarin dictionary, sindarin-english dict. , quenya-english dict. , and an english-quenya dictionary along with lessons, workbooks, forum assitance, and encyclopedias. It's workbooks are extremely helpful and provides a great place to learn Elvish. You can find the workbooks here.)


Those are just a few Elvish sites to visit. If you want a full site list go to Glorfirith Annun's thread Everything Elvish Revamped.

Namárië mellyn!

Yes, I too would recommend Glorfirith Annun's Everything Elvish! - Revamped!

It is very useful!

Hey, thanks for the info! I would really like to get into this stuff again, as it's been years since I was really interested in this kind of fantasy. I will definitely be visiting those sites!

Perhaps another good link to add would be this:

http://www.grey-company.org/Language/

That way people could download the font for their computer. It's really easy to do, but a little difficult to learn how to type with properly...

NOTE!!!

The Elvish used in Tel-Mithrim is based off of Tolkien's Elvish and does contain many similar and identical words. However, please be aware that it is not Tolkien Elvish.

Glorfy is very good with elvish. She's near fluent in Sindarin, plus Rhaella has some excellent Quenya lessons set up. 3nodding

Yah... Grelvish.... *HISS* evil *HISS*

But seriously, I would highly recommend CoE (council of elrond) Its where I learned everything and I think it ROCKS!

Council of Elrond is awesome. I have chosen the Sindarin path...

I actually always wanted to learn Blackspeech, but I guess I'll have to do with Sindarin for now.
