Barrow Wight,

I can certainly understand why you would suggest this if there's no one who has expertise in this. I do not have strong feelings about this, although there may be others who do. Ae we sure there is no one out there who has this kind of background?

This is my guess as to what would happen if the Language forum disapeared. I think that there would be a lot of newbies who would go to novices and newcomers and continue to post threads such as "Where Can I Learn......some form of Elvish." Those who've been around a while here and/or who have more of a Tolkien background would probably take their more advaced questions to Books.

So even if Language disappears as a forum, would we be wise to at least post a thread with links at the top of Novices and Newcomers for "Where do I go to Learn Elvish"? Otherwise, I fear that Novices and Newcomers will have many, many duplicate questions of this sort.
