Legolas is a different race of elf all together. The elves of Rivendell will be a mixture of silvan elves and half-elves like Elrond and Eowyn, whereas Legolas is Sindar. A much more ancient race of elf... so likelihood is yes they will speak differently.

@@alaabadran3705 Tbf he sounds very similar to an english person trying to speak welsh, which the language is based off when pronouncing words and letters. There is a few times when he should have been saying a letter the welsh way but fel into English. Viggo can speak at least 6 languages, so has more ability to pronounce the letters which Orlando may never had come across or used. English people usually find it really hard to pronounce welsh words and letters simply because, some are entirely new to them and is hard to learn when not learning from a young age.

Legolas speaks such a beautiful Elvish, I think you know what I mean. Like, so gentle and soft. It's a detail that really adds an interesting characteristic to the movie Legolas

For those complaining about the difference between Aragorn's and Legolas's pronunciation of Sindarin, see LoTR, Appendix F, 1st footnote: "In Lórien at this period Sindarin was spoken, though with an 'accent', since most of its folk were of Silvan origin..." Note that Legolas, though not of Lórien, is also Silvan, so likely had a similar 'accent'.

Legolas is just flawless; He is beautiful.

Tolkien used sources from Germanic and celtic culture when i wrote the books. The name Gandalv forexample is a germanic name.

Altough i can tell from experience, if you do speak and PRONOUNCE well portuguese u can talk any language in the world (welsh is better because the words have some similarities, but i learned Sindarin quite easily i must say, u just gotta put effort and dedication) 3 - Actually try to learn, and give your best everyday, if you do it no matter the language u speak, u will accomplish and master SINDARIN :) Hope ive helped anyone who wants to learn Sindarin, there is even a "elvish" dictionary online, if you want it, just ask in the comments ill send the link Bye! or Better: Novaer!

But then, maybe as a prince learning ONE more Elvish language couldn't have been such a bad idea for him.

I like to think that Legolas speaks an over-enunciated Sindarin which is slightly off because Mirkwood elves have a different accent, and have to shout orders from distances while in the forest, so they can't afford to make it pretty. And since Aragorn was raised by Elrond (who was arguably raised by Maedhros and Maglor) it's conceivable that Elrond learned Fëanorian Quenya (which has a bit of a lisp, theoretically) and in turn taught that different pronunciation to Aragorn, and then the accent carried over to Sindarin. It's at least a better thought than saying Orlando Bloom just can't pronounce elvish like Viggo can (which is sadly true, not that I could do much better).

Aragorn's Elvish sounds better than Legolas's.
