    _edhellim_ = (a group plural) the Sinda elves _edhellen_ = (adj; noun) 1. elven, elvish; 2. the Sindarin language Both words are accented on the second syllable.

    Very impressed with your knowledge and the fact you're presenting it in English (not your native tongue of Polish) - just a couple of corrections from this as a Welshman - Celtic is pronounced 'Keltic' not 'Seltic', and at the end of your video when you listed the various sources with Welsh and Brythonic - Welsh is a Brythonic language and not different.

    I've never researched it before, and I guess it has some symbolism related to the Bible, but I think you'd have to ask someone else for more in-depth answer. Maybe try Reddit? :)

    The truth is J.R.R Tolkien loved Wales and studied alot of Welsh historical books like the Mabinogion and knew the language well (also please, please do not call it seltic,)
