Sick. Is this an acutal language on the keys, or just lord of the rings jibberish?
Both.
Tolkien constructed an actual language for use in his works, and the gibberish you see on the keyboard is that language.
Other way around, actually: he started out making constructed languages for fun, realized that doing that properly required inventing the cultural and historical context in which it developed, and then, later, started writing fiction set in that world.
Technically it’s an alphabet, not a language (excluding the keys with actual words on them and not just letters). The letters are called Tengwar and in the lore they’re Elvish letters, but you can use them to write in other languages like English. Even in universe they’re used for other languages like on the inscription of the One Ring, which is in Black Speech.
Have you found an official alphabet to use with the Latin alphabet for comparison?
OK thank you, I need to look deeper info that because not every letter is included.
Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
