Rafael’s comments from the J.R.R. Tolkien group.

There's two books for elvish languages. You can look for. A course for sindarin (Peden edhellen) and another for quenya. You can look just for "quenya" in goodreads and you'll find it.

But i don't start to learn the ekvish languages so far. Hehe I will, someday. I already have the books.

The Arwen-Undomiel website translates my name as "Eru (god) renewed" but my name means "god has healed" in ancient hebrew, so it musn't be translated as "Eruceura" in quenya but as "eruenvinyanto". Not a pretty name.

What a such good articles. Too interesting.

Oh, I read the "Letters" once.

Ok. Thank you, Michael.

LoTR was read about 4-5 times, Silma the same, Hobbit less than that, Unfinished Tales 3 or 4, Húrin 2. I already have the box from the HoME but not read it yet.

I will not participate in this group read, but as soon as possible I will read it. It seems be a book that I will enjoy.
