Why are the elves leaving Rivendell?

I got it from my friend. I have no idea where she got it from.

Oh well she probably got it from the grey company site because the ylook awefully familiar.

maybe, you never know.

Ok, this is annoying. I can't post a link. These are diroctions, however, to get to the site:
go to hotelf.com
go to the link on the left that says "learn Elvish"
click on the downloadable lessons, and, well, you know what to do.

Hm,
strange mixture of Sindarin and Quenya and some things that are DEFINITELY NOT Tolkien Elvish. Just look at the last line... or all the phrases that have "Ll" in them... Ll is a very nice sound but does not occur in Tolkien Elvish - he also has no "aa" and no accents in this way "`".

However, sounds nice and thats the main thing.

😕 erm.....you kinda lost me there. Valinor is the place where Elves came from and the place where they sail to in the end. The Grey Havens also known as Mithlond, is the place where the ships are. The Grey Havens are part of Middle-Earth and isn't exactly safe from Mordor's evils. Valinor is the only place Mordor/Sauron can't get to.

🙂 hey Elenelda! you gave a website thing...it doesnt work...i dunno it asked me wat hotel i wanted to stay in...hehe..thanks! 🙂

@Kitoky: the elves didnt originally come from Valinor, but they awoke in eastern middle-earth near later Mordor!

Ok simple... sry kitoky 🙂

hey pplz this Valinor stuff is confusing me...can someone give me a summery? like a short one..please...i am soo happy i got the ROTK soundtrack yesterday! yeah! and pippins song it sooo cute! does he acctually sing it?

Summary?

Valinor is the land of the Gods while Middle-earth is the land of elves and men (and of course orcs and stuff); in the beginning when the first elves awoke some of them journeyed to Valinor; but one group of them (the noldor) fled back to middle-earth when some revolution was erm caused; so now in middle-earth there are two "types" of elves, those that already were in valinor and those who werent...
and when elves die or get sick of the world they take a ship to Valinor which lies in the west so the title on the RoTK soundtrack "into the west" because frodo&co also went there because of being tired of the pain of carrying the ring, being stabbed by the Nazgûl ( 😍 ) and so on.

Ok, I'm not an expert on this stuff yet. I hope to be soon, but no promises are made. Please don't kill me for not being perfect. ❌

That sounded kinda more complicated than it should be. Not that I'm complaining....😄

I'm not really good at summing up stuff that I like and that I cant regard objectively... always gets quite weird.

weird? That's because Tolkien's world is so complicated and when you're explaining one thing it leads to explaining another thing and you just have to drag on

wow thanks exa..ur soo smart! how old are u>? you dont have to anwer that if you dont want to...but somone please teach me how to speak elvish plz!

Speak Elvish? Do you rather want to learn some practical or cool sentences or really learn the language as a foreign language? And - which elvish? High elvish? The grey-elven tongue (was mostly used in the film)? Something else?

wow do u know all of them? ur soo cooL! umm the grey-elven tongue...is that the one where like everyone (almost everyone) knows how to speak i mena in the movie...like aragorn

All of them? Are you crazy? Tolkien invented about 15 languages for Middle-earth 😉 😉
I just learned some Sindarin and a very very little bit of Quenya, so I doubt that I can really help anybody.

Yes exactly that's it 🙂 that's grey-elven ...
