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. :D

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.
