the elven speech was said to be clear and sharp, but also more beautiful than other tongues.
old entish was developed by the ents for the ents, and it took ages to say anything in it. there were actually no elvish elements in it, but the ents liked to speak in elvish quenya if they had to be hasty.
dwarvish was called khuzdul. it was secretive, the dwarves kept it to themselves. they tghought it was a great secret. it was also meant to be very hard to say anything in dwarvish, because it wasa jaw cracker
