LOTR Class

At the University of Texas you can take a class that teaches you Dwarvish, Elvish, and Orcish. You also learn the history of Middle Earth. How kool is that.

REALLY?? 😕 😱

I wonder what dwarvish and orcish you learn there... tolkien didnt write enough to make that possible

PH MY GOD I WANT 😄😄😄😄😄

Yea i read it in a magazine. I think they teach the history of each culture too. Its awesome.

Ok, for the history you can also just read the silmarillion 😄 😄 😄

I'm also member of a site where you learn the history (again) and the greyelven language and then have tests and stuff about it... quite interesting though I do not like tests but as long an there is nothing such stupid as marks...

welllllllllllllllllll i think that inventing languages is not only for tolkien to do, i'm sure some people went ahead and created their own language or continued what tolkien statred.

Yes, most likely though it would be an interesting class to take. It would to have a test on Elvish or something. I tried to find it on the UOT site but there was nothing.

I'd rather learn the language at my own home with my own computer, much more fun than listening to a teacher rant on about adjectives and nouns.

Oh, I want a class like that in the college I'm going to go to in September!!!

Ha, not likely!!!

I'll just stick to my film and media studies😄

My German is not that good unfortunately.

Elondra, where do you live? I live in Maryland and i dont think i would go that far for college

A clas like that sounds nice, Come to think of it me and my friends 80% of the time during breaks at school talk about Lord of the Rings, there are also when my friend plays chess he uses characters from LOTR, lol it is quite amusing, he mostlty forgets which characters are for which colour,

The white pieces represent the "good" side, the pawn pieces represent either orcs or soldiers (pending in which "side he is on"

He makes the"queen" aragorn due to the Kings lack of movement on a chess board and that the Queen is ultimately the greatest piece,

Discos - erm, yes back to the subject

Do they teach online classes???? oh god i hope so!!

Yea, I knew that, but I wouldn't take it. I have been learning spanish for now 5 years, and it's so hard for me... It's not just one language, it's three, tough stuff.

Yea i am doing spanish too. I dont think i could handle 3 diffrent languages

I'd probably forgot all that I learned about them... 🙁
