They are based on the 1937 novel The Hobbit by J. R. R Tolkien. Portions of the trilogy are also adapted from the appendices to The Return of the King. The films are subtitled An Unexpected Journey (2012), The Desolation of Smaug (2013), and There and Back Again (2014). The first film in the series premiered at the Embassy Theatre in Wellington, New Zealand on 28 November 2012. Peter Jackson and Fran Walsh originally expressed interest in filming The Hobbit in 1995, then envisaging it as part one of a trilogy (part two would have been based on The Lord of the Rings). On 16 December 2007, New Line and MGM announced that Jackson would be executive producer of The Hobbit and its sequel. Guillermo del Toro was originally set to direct the film, but left because of ongoing delays. The first film will stand on its own and the second will be a transition and fusion with Peter's world.
Quenya A course of the Department of Tolkien languages. Unit Summary[edit] Course code: ALE-U-QUE1Suggested prerequisites:Time investment:Assessment suggestions:Faculty: HumanitiesSchool: Language and LiteratureDepartment: Tolkien panguagesStream: Elvish streamLevel: Course Contents and Goals[edit] This course will provide you with a complete knowledge of Quenya, the best-known of the languages invented by Tolkien, as it was conceived in the last years of Tolkien's life. This language is more or less the version devised in the Lord of the Rings (see the problem of the canon). The aims of the course are to: Learn Phonology, Grammar and Syntax of the (last) Quenya as we can infer from the Corpus. Knowledge of this aspect will also seek to make learners understand how we arrived at this form of Quenya and which "rules" are explicitly provided by Tolkien himself, or have been inferred. Learning materials[edit] The following are principal learning devices used in this course, to which every lesson refers.
Utuvielye Quenya: Guide To Learning Quenya undefined Introduction Ok, I have written this in response to the many emails I seem to be writing about which ways are the easiest to learn Quenya. I hope that this answers some of your questions, if you would still like to ask questions after reading through this short guide, feel free to email me at darkman@callnetuk.com. Right, onto the guide... Quenya / Sindarin... If you are new to Elvish, you may be wondering about Quenya and Sindarin, and how different they actually are. Basically, Quenya is the oldest of the 2 tongues, and is used by the high elves of the west (beyond the sea in the west), and is the closest to the oldest tongue. Sindarin is the newer form of elvish used by the Grey elves of the Middle-Earth. How Can I Learn Quenya? Well, the first thing to realise, is that learning Sindarin or Quenya is no different to learning any other 'real-world' language. The Course can be found here: Anyway, the Quenya book that I got was called

Quenya Quenya is an artificial language developed by the English philologist and author of The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, etc., J.R.R. Tolkien (1892-1973). The native language of the High Elves, Quenya was inspired by Finnish and Latin. Quenya has nine cases (nominative, genitive, possessive, dative, allative, ablative, locative, instrumental, respective) and five verbal tenses (including the aorist, based upon the Greek tense with the same name).

Are High Elves Finno-Ugric? Tolkien's original inspiration to create Quenya, the High-elven language, came from his encounter with Finnish. How similar, then, are these two languages? Contents Introduction Quenya is a constructed language created by Professor J. The following is my attempt to point out the similarities and differences between Quenya and my native tongue, Finnish. I have no competence in linguistics, so please forgive any inaccuracies in my use of terminology. Summary According to its creator, Quenya's main models were Latin, Finnish and Greek. Comparing the grammars of the two languages shows that both are rather highly inflected languages, having a large number of noun cases. Phonetics and phonology - the sounds of a language and the system they form - were important to Tolkien, who most of all wanted his languages to sound beautiful. As a natural result of the similarities in sound structure, Quenya has many words that would not be impossible in Finnish, either. While studying at Oxford, young J. .
