Character languages?

Maglor : lol so Mags speaks by DEFAULT Feanorian Quenya (with the 'th') but he is perfectly capable of switching to 'standard' Quenya, he just won't because fambly. He also speaks Sindarin fluently and these days probably mostly thinks in it. He also has Taliska (the original human tongue) and probably proto Easterling (thanks Bor)
beachcryptid
depending on how long you think he lives... if he makes it to the Third Age he almost certainly proceeded to pick up: Adunaic & Westron for sure. Maybe Rohirric, and if he keeps going past the Third into the Fourth, he'll probably get around to Khandian & Haradric
beachcryptid
look dad is a linguist
beachcryptid
he does NOT speak Khuzdul, but he probably can read it, considering he's from an era where the dwarves were good friends with the Noldor
beachcryptid
he might even know how to say "hello" but nothing more than that

beachcryptid
SHE LIKES YOU BEST BECAUSE YOU SPOIL HER

Kaito: speaks & reads fluent English. We know he has smatterings of basic French, and he probably has some Mandarin too
beachcryptid
Erestor: Speaks both Feanorian & standard Quenya and will code switch depending on who he is talking to (if he wants to Annoy People he uses the thorn), but grew up speaking Sindarin and prefers it. Also speaks and reads fluent Adunaic, Westron & Taliska.
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
imagine "introducing" him and elrond. "Oh, meet my Uncle, Maglor! 8D"
beachcryptid

{TharBG} will appreciate
beachcryptid
XD yes
Lel
suddenly I'm picturing Conan and Kaito getting into a competition pf which one of them knows more languages
beachcryptid
Elros: Speaks, by default, Sindarin. HOWEVER. He can and will use Feanorian Quenya if he thinks it will be funny, or he wants to make a Point. Also speaks Taliska, but hilariously does NOT speak Adunaic, as it evolved after his time.
beachcryptid
Lel : lol I'm almost certain Conan wouuld win
Lel
(LOL)
beachcryptid
Kaito is most upset by this XD
Lel
at least Kaito can do a decent Kansai accent?

ʝєss
Finrod speaks Quenya and refuses to distinguish between the two dialects
beachcryptid
ʝєss : but does he deliberately turn the thorn on and off to annoy cousins
delatour
So like his dad?
beachcryptid
/wheeze
ʝєss
YOU KNOW WHAT
ʝєss
Now he is just going to do it to be annoying
ʝєss
I mean he probably did that before anyways
delatour
fingon probably only uses thorn for old-fashioned songs and making fun of feanor
delatour
which does raise questions about how the fingolfinians relate to their vanyar cousins, whose quenya still uses thorn.
delatour
also maybe what's going on in turgon's house
beachcryptid
Turgon speaks "Proper" quenya, by which he means "Whatever the Feanorians Dont Like"
beachcryptid
Earwen rolls her eyes and uses the thorn when she's at home with the parents and not when she's with hubby
ʝєss
Fëanor, stop trying to make fetch happen, it’s not going to happen
delatour
i am entirely entertained by the fact that feanor's pet grammar quirk means that he technically speaks more like his siblings' relatives than well, fingolfin does
beachcryptid
giggle yeah
ʝєss
Finrod points out all the ways contemporary quenya is technically not the proper quenya just to harass Turgon
beachcryptid
Turgon wants to know why they're BFFs again
delatour
all the rest of the family is worse
ʝєss
You love him and he’s your better half
beachcryptid
he's not always sure about that bit
ʝєss
It’s ok, everyone else is
