Learn Sindarin

OMG I’m trying so hard to learn sindarian but I’m getting absolutly nowhere does anyone have any help for me? If so e-mail me at Tiffany_Yougo@hotmail.com

i think that sindarin and all other languages created by tolkein ( exept black speech ) sound beautiful and i would love to be able to speak it !

...

Because Tolkien’s languages are like Pringles—once you pop, you can’t stop.

I am not the greatest person at searching the internet…can anyone tell me the best way to learn Sindarin??? I would like to learn at home on my spare time. Is there a course that can be purchased? Any advice would be a great help. Thanks!!!

Occasionally, I’ll spot people wearing ‘I <3 Nerds' t-shirts.

A year or two ago, it finally occurred to me that I should be talking to these people (most being hot girls). Specifically, I should be saying something along the lines of ‘lan hamad melin’ or ‘lIj yor chen jIH Quch’. Sadly, small lexicons + not much use online == hard to piece together phrases, and probably more painful to learn.

ive been doing a lot better at jicarilla apache, and since i live near the reservation, its a lot more useful than sindarin

I’ve already learnt Quenya, and it’s a wonderful language. Sindarin seems to sound nicer, and be a lot harder. Still, it’s worth a try.

in college i took a class on fairy and the christian myth. we read all of lord of the rings and read quite a bit on the origins and pronunciations of the languages in lotr. then a friend wanted me to learn sindarin with her, so she would have someone to speak with. i remember only a few things, like the greeting mae govannen. (forgive my misspellings)

LEARN QUENYA FIRST!!!!!!!!!

IT MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE!!!!!!!
