Sindarin Words

The Sindarin words presented here are limited to those Tolkien used in the period around the publication of The Lord of the Rings and afterwards (1951-1973). In early periods, Tolkien used a different names for this language: either “Noldorin” or (even earlier) “Gnomish”. The words from these earlier versions of the language are not strictly speaking Sindarin. Nevertheless, many fans who compose Sindarin writings adapt some of these early words and use them with Sindarin; see Neo-Sindarin for further information.
