A Elbereth Gilthoniel
silivren penna mìriel
o menel agla elenath!
Na-chaered palan-dìriel
o galadhremmin ennorath,
Fanuilos, le linnathon

@kikiyoinuyasha

To be fair, they are Tolkien's perfect race, so germans may well like to associate themselves with them.

[DienerdesFeindes]

@perstyr Actually I never associated myself with an elf ;)

[lilirishcricket]

[DienerdesFeindes]

German ^^

@lathandien also,but slavic was predominant....elfs, dwarfs, you have all that in slavic mythology not norse,besides that he used slavic names (Boromir,Faramir...)!! but all together its all mixed in middle world !

[lathandien]

@Alos21 not slavic, norse.

[Kinewa]

Tolkien always was partial to Finnish.

[kikiyoinuyasha]

@CrowDreams ohh i get it o= thank you for telling me i didn`t know that ;3 @ Perstyr : Ah that is true ;3

[Alos21]

@perstyr most of the Tolkien`s imaginarium came from the Slavic mythology not german

[CrowDreams]

@kikiyoinuyasha He based the elvish races on several races and cultures in history. For example Sindarin bears very close resemblance to Welsh as do their looks, his 'Luthien' was a lady he fell in love with and his wife from North Wales. One race of Elves was linguistically based on the Icelandic people I think. I could be wrong though lol
