Lay off the crack. It's impairing your ability to reason and interpret. The
question was about how to figure out what the Sperethiel language would be
like based on text and canon available...also based on the Tir
language...which was WRITTEN BY FASA! I'M talking about a GAME. The question
seemed to be about a GAME. "REAL" elven language?!? Know any elves? Or just
the fairies whose dust you keep taking?!? The gaming concepts, as I mentioned
and you ignored were based LARGELY upon Tolkien's works. A lot of the first
people who played D & D were the same people who had just got done reading
Lord of the Rings. The games that followed drew upon many of the same
influences. This isn't a game. These are real people asking real questions.
Don't get a manaball up your arse just because somebody doesn't answer in
character as if the list is nothing but an ongoing game! This is for
questions and answers and discussions CONCERNING THE GAME! I've only been on
this list half a year and I've been able to figure out AT LEAST that much!
