After a bit of persuading NaurwenT has decided to help us out a bit with the troubles of linguistics. She will be placed as a Linguistic Consultant and help Sukkit(Rober) work on the languages used in TLA.

'No, I shouldn't say it that way,' Gandalf said. 'Rather say the Ring hasn't got control of him. He's his own master. But he can't change the ring, nor break the power it has on others.'


No, my name isn't wrong, it's just a combination of Mithrandir and Mithril: look and see: MITHRandI(L/R)

Thanks a million, lads!

I shall try my best in order to give you a hand with the linguistic chores: basically Sindarin/Eldarin languages and the Dunleding tongue - if we manage to agree on a few things :) - and anything else you could do with extra help.
I apologise in advance for the mistakes I'm bound to make while learning the ropes.
A quick word about myself: I have been a Tolkien fan for long years now, and have great interest in languages (being a philologist), history, horsemanship and anything related to medieval weaponry (I guess that makes me a bit of a tomboy... well, whaddayaknow :P)
Thanks again!
Slán go fóill!

Welcome, welcome!

I think you'll can get along pretty nicely with Matteo, since he shares your interest for history (but we almost all have that here :)) and medieval weaponry (now that's special!).

Who can't be interested in medieval weaponry? It's far more special for TLA fans to be interested in modern weaponry :P

Got me there, but I for myself have to admit that I don't make so much work of my interest as you :), though joining a bow-shooting club might be something I will do in the future!
