I finally got myself to finish TTT! Took me forever--I had such a HARD TIME making myself go through---that certain part (I'm sure a lot of you know what I'm talking about!!) [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Anyway, at the part when the Orcs show up more than one of them (or one of them more than once) uses the term "Hola!"

HUH??? I work at a preschool with many spanish speaking kids and a couple of teachers to boot, and none of them look like Orcs! For that matter, I didn't see any Orcs in my Spanish I or II classes in High School. WHERE in Middle Earth did this phrase come from? Or was it MEANT to be a joke???
