Ok... so this is kinda weird... but I always wonder how to pronounce some of the names. Like Feanor. I always think of it as Fay-uh-nor... is that how it's supposed to be? Cause fee-nor and feh-ah-nor sound kinda weird to me. ![]() And names like Sauron... I've heard it pronounced sore-on, sahr-on, and sou-ron! It's confusing! Anyone know how all the names are supposed to sound? |

There's a great pronunciation guide in the back of most copies of the Silmarillion. I find the names impossible sometimes, too! In the end, I had to get the Silmarillion audio book to keep up with all the names and get the pronunciation right!I think you've got Feanor right. ("Fay" as in hay?) And Sauron is pronounce "Sow-ron" with the ow as in town, according to the pronunciation guide I mentioned.

The writers clearly understand academic standards, and my paper was well-researched, properly formatted, and delivered on time https://www.analyticsinsight.net/tech-news/smartphones-as-study-hubs-best-practices-for-academic-productivity . What I liked most was the open communication with the writer, which made the whole process smooth and stress-free. The service is reliable, especially for students juggling multiple deadlines. Prices are reasonable compared to the value you receive, and the plagiarism-free guarantee gives peace of mind. Overall, this platform is a great option for anyone needing academic support without compromising on quality or originality. |
