Elven Language Primer

[SylverFlame]

Hello all. I was wondering if anyone has or knows of a good elvish language primer. Preferably one with a "translate" option, or at least english to elvish.

I'm looking for a friend and all he has is an elvish to english version that is about 56 pages long.

Any elvish will work, so don't worry if it's Tolkien or not. Thanks in advance.

Check out this page. There's no automatic translation, if that's what you're looking for, but there is a elvish-english dictionary of sorts. There's even a course on Quenya, something akin to a course you might take in French, only with less vocabulary.

or simply abuse BabelFish by converting your text to French or something and then take that text and change the font to something suitably elvish.

What you'll get is something with different language patterns, and the player's will never know anyway. Of course, never try to pronounce any of it

The page the first guy linked to is amazing. It's a course in Tolkien's Quenya by one of the most learned elvish language experts on the net. He really knows his stuff.
