For what it's worth, Sperethiel was entirely invented by FASA writers and is
in no way based off Tolkien's work other than being another "elven language".

Paul Hume once told me back in '96 that he came up with the name Sperethiel
by running the words "Speak, Breathe, Feel" together really fast. The
invention of other Sperethiel words has been equally scientific ; )

While there were a few (very few) bare-bones notes by Paul about Sperethiel
grammar, etc. (all expanded upon by Nigel Findley in Tir Tairngire) what you
see in the published books is what there is. FASA isn't sitting on a secret
Sperethiel dictionary and grammar and any rumors about such are utterly...
