Tolkien

As far as I know and have read, there was no actual language Westron as developed by Tolkien. Tolkien kind of glossed over the whole presence of the language in ME by placing English as it's equivalent in the books. It's sort of like automatic subtitling. Maybe in the future some language savants will figure out the probable form of Westron by deriving it from Adunaic.
