*waves* Your Sindarin TextbookWell, I know that Âr Haldir is one, so who are the rest of you? Perhaps I could gain a few students? |

I wasn't a student, but now I am!
It looks amazing! I'm glad to have an advantage in the pronouncing, for I normally speak Dutch. It comes from old German languages, like Scandinavian. Therefore I can just read it and say it right the first time.

Sure, count me in. I think I've butchered the Sindarin in Awartho Estel enough, and my beta reader, Sulien, seems to have gone to the Havens without me.  |

Oh, man... I haven't been there in ages. I think I'll have to start from scratch.

Small question: What's the difference in pronouncing the U in Brute or in Lune in English?

Small question: What's the difference in pronouncing the U in Brute or in Lune in English? I didn't think there was one... Broot...Loon...Huh. Nope. I don't see a difference. Maybe it's just me? English isn't my native tongue, for all that I've been speaking it nigh on 21 years... |

'Lune' is a French word... and in French, we pronounce 'u's differently than we do in English. I don't know how to type that out properly though... it sort of comes naturally. *frown*

Can I be a student too?
But there is one problem..... the website won't open on my computer.
