Write your name in elvish!
Learn to write your name in elvish!
I have provided an elvish alphabet to help!
Follow the steps provided to write your name!
1: Write your name on paper
2: Look on the alphabet provided and write the letters of your name down.
3: Take any vowels in your name and follow the instructions provided next to that letter, and put them above or below the consonants.
There you’re done!
Note: If your name has the same letter rite after the other like in the name Tess put a strait line underneath to symbolize that it’s the same letter twice.

Dwarfs or Dwarves?
This is an interesting post that I have made. See I turned in a J.R.R. Tolkien paper to my professor, about two weeks later I got my paper back (I got an A+, I worked really hard on it) Anyway on the paper a spelling error was marked by my professor. He marked the letters VES in the word Dwarves wrong. When I read this I laughed so hard I thought I might die. Obviously he had never read any Tolkien. So this got me thinking about Tolkien and his use of words and language. See the word Dwarves and the word Elves are somewhat diffrent then the conventinal way of spelling the words. The conventinal being Dwarfs and Elf's. So now that you all know this or already new, when you next read Tolkien please look out for these diffrent spelling.
Until next time,
