Hail my brethren!
I am a fanfiction writer for The Hobbit fandom and cosplay Thorin Oakenshield. I have a particular interest in the dwarven culture (both as invented by the great J.R. Tolkien and as expanded upon by the many fans worldwide) and language.
I am an avid fan of https://dwarrowscholar.wordpress.com/ and the amazing work he has put in into assembling and creating a full working language for the dwarves based on the limited provision of this in the original Tolkien works. Everything is this blog is to his credit and I would ask everyone to refer to his original site and donate to the grandmaster himself to keep his work going.
All my blog seeks to do in a humble way is create some simple khuzdul lessons based on the dwarrow scholars work. All information provided is his unless otherwise stated and I take no credit for developing this amazing language, simply for publishing it in a format that I have devised for myself and my friends to learn the elements of the language that are most useful to us as fanfiction writers and cosplayers.
This is very much an interpretation of other people’s work and if you see any mistakes please do not hesitate of let me know.
I have studied many languages over the years and I have a natural love for words and patterns. Khuzdul ticks all those boxes for me. I hope that as my reader it will for you too.
