can someone please help me i want to learn to speak elvish but it all seems so hard i tried a few websites..and everything ws so weird......is there anyway to learn how to speak elvish easily....or does anyone know a really good site or anything please help me i want to know how to speak this beautiful language...

if you want an elfish expert pm exa she is almost an elf herself

No, there is no real way to learn it easily... but the best and at least a bit easy way I know is the Sindarin-Course by Thorsten Renk ( http://home.agh.edu.pl/~evermind/mathom/pedin_edhellen_en.zip ) or the Quenya-Course of Ardalambion (as usually the most brilliant one, though a bit complicated at the beginning): http://www.uib.no/People/hnohf/qcourse.htm

(Sindarin and Quenya are the two best-known elvish languages grey-elvish (as mostly used in the movie) and high-elvish)

wow thank you so much

Exa, how long did it take you to learn the language?

i was wondering htat too

I didnt learn the language
I learned fragments

Well I first started to translate Sindarin two years ago I think, but I havent always worked to improve it since then, so i dunno how long the actual time was

I dont know any quenya except for some very essential things, I need loads of dictionaries and grammars to translate anything

I wanna learn Elvish...I just don't have the patience Haha. That Ardalambion site is much too complicated for my tiny-sized brain I might try learning Elvish during the summer, when I have tons of free time. Thanks for those sites, Exa.

I've got some random translations to commonly used words that I could post if anyone would like them...

shoot!

www.grey-company.org

the grey company is phoney, I have to say.......

*agrees with kit*
Thats not Tolkien-elvish but Roleplaying-elvish. Also nice, but imo not as beautiful as any of Tolkiens languages... and far easier

Too easy...
