As an older American with only 3 years of French in grade school, I can't seem to remember any of these words. I'm good at pronouncing them while reading but 5 minutes later I can't remember what i read.hahah

    There is no such language as "Elvish", just as there is no such language as "Chinese". Elves speak Quenya and/or Sindarin, just as the Chinese speak Mandarin or Cantonese. Which one is this?

    +Radhika Bianchi You know, Mandarin is just the standardized Chinese and Cantonese is a dialect of Chinese. There are tons of dialects in Chinese. There's nothing wrong about referring a cluster of close-resembled languages and/or dialects with a unified term.

    oh come on... Do you see many examples who show us the perfect example for pronunciation in Sindarin ? Because they rarely speak that language in the movies, and outside the movie, very few people speak it. As there is technically no standardized Sindarin, he technically doesn't sound like a tourist at all. In fact, maybe his pronunciation is the best one out there.
