Continuity errors in Tolkien
Ok, None of us should be too critical of J.R.R, but its human nature. It has been well documented that Christopher Tolkien was a continuity fanatic and he often pointed out errors in the text. There is one in particular I have noticed;
Firstly, Somewhere in Silmarillion when it talks about Melko's name change, it says that he was called Morgoth ever after, and that the name Melkor is never spoken on earth. YET, Legolas says, "They were bread by Melkor".
Have you noticed any continuity errors?
