Information about Sindarin
Sindarin is a complex language created by J.R.R. Tolkien for his novels. It is the language of the Sindar, the Grey Elves of Middle-Earth.
There were many different elvish languages ~ the Sea Elves spoke Telerin, the Green Elves spoke Nandorin ~ but only Quenya and Sindarin were developed enough by Tolkien for us to communicate in.
Quenya was spoken by the Elves who journeyed from Middle-Earth to Aman. For those who did not finished the journey, their language changed over time and became Sindarin. The Elves who returned to Middle-Earth, the Noldor, learned to speak Sindarin. By the Third Age Quenya had become a language of ancient lore, not daily usage. In the time of the events of the Lord of the Rings all the Elves in Middle-Earth used Sindarin, although there were different dialects in different places.
