An
Introduction to Elvish
Here
you will find simple grammatical rules and word lists for use in creating
elvish phrases and sentences. The Elvish you find here is taken from the
Grey Company's language base which is loosely based on the elven found in
J.R.Tolkien's works. But the best way to learn is typing and learning from
your fellow elves.
