So Goblin Men in the film (as him "He has bred Orc with Goblin Men") is incorrect, as the goblin men were in turn a subset of the Half Orcs?

Ok I am going to re-read some Uruk-Hai stuff in LoTRs.

Ok the plural of Uruk is Uruks:

Quote:
A troup of heavily armed Uruks
Uruks and Uruk-Hai seem to be interchangeable, but Uruk-Hai only seems to apply to the Elite Troops (for example the suspected rebels in Mordor and Saruman's Shock Troops), whereas Uruk seems to be general Big Orcs, such as the big ones in Moria.

Final point: In JRRT's index he has two entries Uruk and Uruk Hai. They seem to be separate.
