I was answering a thread on "no" in Sindarin, over on CoE, when this popped into my head:

Go not to the Gray Company for counsel, for they will say both no and sheep.



Some of you will understand. :)

I think I get it. But then I don't think I got it.

Perhaps you haven't run across their site.

The Grey Company (http://www.grey-company.org/) has a rather unique sort of Elvish. If you know Quenya, look at the Elvish on the opening page.

Are you confused?




A lot of people have studied their Elvish over the years thinking they're learning Tolkien's languages. This leads to problems.

They've added a more visible disclaimer now, thank goodness. Their Elvish combines Quenya, Sindarin, and Dungeons & Dragons into one tongue.

:eek:

Hmm... If I knew Quena I'd probably still be confused...:D
