Great article, Squatter, though I agree with you about the closing remark.
Having Welsh roots, I am interested in the idea of the Elvish language being derived from Welsh. One thing that occurred to me while reading the article is that in both Welsh and Elvish "dh" is (I think) pronounced "th". Does anyone know of any other similarities?
