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!

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...
