How to Overanalyze the Elvish Dialect in “Lord Of The Rings”

If you’re a nerd, you’re about to totally geek out with us, and we’re here for it.

Lord of the Rings is one of the most-read, most-loved fantasy series of all time, and the fact that the movie adaptations also work very well was a huge relief to the fanbase.

These super fans are going to take you down a rabbit hole, analyzing the various Elvish dialects in the books and movies, to the point where it all comes full circle and applies to our own puny and modern lives.

Was he even the very important elf he claimed to be?
