A great deal of my source material was from the first 3 books Christopher Tolkien put out, of collected works from his father. There ended up being many more books in that series, but I kinda lost focus after the third one. Different priorities, etc.
Lord Grendel had an obsession with those languages, too. I remember reading somewhere that after Tolkein's death they discovered writings for at least a dozen more languages.....which meant he was planning more books of some type. Some of the written scripts for these languages is very pretty..........best calligraphy I've seen.
Many, many years ago, I collected Quenya, Sindarin & Noldor words from the appendices of all the available books and made dictionaries for all 3 Elven languages. I even had the 2 written forms (tengwar & angerthas) memorized (mostly). As far as my namesake, I remember Ar-Pharazôn (language of men) and Tar-Calion (Quenya), but it's been decades since that particular obsession.
Tolkien was brilliant in the fact he created a number of languages and written script to go with those languages & dialects. He also designed a world for the languages.... His work goes way beyond just the rings:)
Yes indeed! The ruler of them all......and he had, what, 3 or 4 names......including the name you have chosen.
at one point I was going to change my username to Miriel, which was the rightful queen of Numenor, but her husband prevented her from being queen.....and you know who her husband was?.......lol
