Question on copies of the One Ring

Here is a link with the writing in Black Speech (language of Mordor):http://nelkahn.xoasis.com/pix/t-script.png; it's kinda fuzzy, I'll see if I can find a better one later. Oh, and by the way, the inscription on the ring in the movie is in Black Speech, I think they just say Elvish because they don't want other people to get totally confused. You're right though, it's not Elvish, but Tengwar characters.:)

[WallRocker]

Yes, but wasn't the language of Mordor a version of the Elvish language? I think it says something like that in the appendicies about the diffrent speeches of ME.

[Khamûl]

Look in the chapter "The Shadow of the Past" of Fellowship of the Ring and the inscription should be printed there. Or at least it is in my edition.

[Lefty Scaevola]

The script or letters are elvish, but not the language. The twengar alphabet was used by many languages other than elvish ones.

[RwRyNe]

Ahh from what the site says it sounded like it was written in elvish(when read)

I know its in the book, but I was hoping I could get a picture(be more easy for him to look at the picture then to hold the book)

[Shadowfax]

You could photocopy that page of your book.

Or here's another picture of it, though it is quite a bit smaller than the previous one I posted. http://www.sideshowtoy.com/placed/lotr/hm_ring.gif

The language of Mordor is Mordorc. I can't remember how 2 spell it though

[Shadowfax]

Mordorc? I alway thought it was just the Black Speech. Where'd you hear that, FattyBulger?

[Elf Girl]

Mordorc? It sounds like something made up from those "teach yourself orkish" sites. (No offense if it isn't ):)

[Tolman]

You can find rings as low as $44.99 here:

Look for the rings in "Gollum Gold" (24k gold plated over bronze )

You mean those sites arent reliable????? Nuts!

How does one go about learning the Black Speech?

[Elf Girl]

You can't. Tolkien didn't make up enough of it to be learnt. The "teach yourself orkish" sites just make it up.

[Ma Uai: Ua Nemti]

Fudge!
