Have you ever studied Elvish (the language)? I'm trying to learn it, but it's not easy, because often, you don't know if it's correct and if the souce you received the information from is accurate. I'm trying to learn the basics, but I'm coming across many different ways to say certain phrases, and I don't know which one is correct. :bye2:

No, I'm horrible with French as it is, and learning another language would completely foul me up

Yes, I've tried a bit but kind of dropped it. Now I stick to learning greetings and small phrases.

Actually I don't think that is ture because then it would disagree with something Tolkine himself said. He said that elves usually marry in between 50-100 so how coulde they marry when they are not mature? If elves are married after 100 they are considered a special case so Galadriel, Elrond and Arwen are all special cases. Even if one elf year is 140 human years it doesn't exactly apply to the body it is just a time scale. Tolkien himself said that they are very much like us in body but in mind they are different and their senses are keener.

I agree with that. And I'm not surprised I agree with an Arien quote, she's always right :)!

Wow, that has a lot of useful information.

I've never heard that though I think it's not true, but like you said, you never know.

Wow! What Elf Girl posted is really informative. I read the other essays and it's really amazing. They tell about Elven Weddings and other stuff.
