From the 1910s to the 1970s, author and linguist J. R. R. Tolkien worked at creating plausibly realistic languages to be used by the creatures and characters in his novels.

By the time of his death, he had established fairly complete descriptions of two languages, the "elvish" tongues Quenya and Sindarin.
