Did the Ring Shrink?

[Imladris]

it [the ring] seemed to have become thicker and heavier than ever.

...but the Ring slipped from his finger as he swam.

It may slip off treacherously

It seemed to grow larger as it lay for a moment on his big brown skinned hand.

I think those quotes settle the matter...if it hasn't already been settled...


I would like to point out that I don't remember the Ring speaking at all in the books...Also the bit about the Ring calling out to Elessar is a PJ invention as Aragorn never had close contact with the Ring or Frodo at the end of FotR.
