<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> even PJ, though it's a little surprising from a man of his perfectionistic standards. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>I want some of what Orual's smoking, it must make the movies much better. Where exactly was Éomer riding north to in TTT? Why does PJ appear playing two different and obvious characters in the movies? Ditto, his children?<P>We could always suppose that Aragorn doesn't understand Dwarvish, and that he was just saying in general that Gimli wasn't being very nice. Not likely, though.<P>I don't think Tolkien himself invented many words of Dwarvish, let alone complete grammar. I think they probably just used similar sounding words. I'd be interested to know whether it's an actual language or just gibberish. John Rhys-Davies is Welsh, right? Maybe it's Welsh! I just hope it's not Klingon...
