i believe there is a section at the back of 'the silmarillion'(sp?) by Tolkien that has a pretty comprehensive description of elvish/ elven/ whatever.

One of the better resources in "The languages of Middle Earth"- you can order the book from amazon.

Thats pretty cool. Maybe a bunch of us should learn, so we can have entire threads in the elven language.

ELVISH YOU SAY?

Ai! laurië lantar lassi súrinen,

yéni únótimë ve rámar aldaron!

Yéni ve lintë yuldar avánier

mi oromardi lissë-miruvóreva

Andúnë pella, Vardo tellumar

nu luini yassen tintilar i eleni

ómaryo airetári-lírinen.

Sí man i yulma nin enquantuva?

An sí Tintallë Varda T'laniya.

EDIT: Gruntboy did not actually have sex with a member of the Greek Senate.

Wow... Three months... I must've been really drunk that night...

I'm actually abstaining until marrage, or the right person.

Seriously?

Yeah. Partly because I don't think I'm ready yet.
