yeah that’s the joke of the post. to put it charitably, i’ve written no adjective at all to humorously imply there was no good adjective i could put there. remarkable reading comprehension on your part

wise people everywhere are waking up to this it would seem

YEAH that is especially flavorful to me because in a sense by doing all that she made jace like her. because of it they are both the person who should be the unchallenged heir but for an accident of birth beyond their control they will fight all their lives and there will always be questions

even if they hold their kingdom together in their lifetime, what happens after? if they’ve had children with someone who the rest of the nobility considers unsuitable, their heirs will now have to fight the aforementioned war, and if they have no children there will in all likelihood also be a war

my best guess is that either whoever was doing the wigs did not know how to install a wig on someone whose natural hair is short OR there was some issue with the fake ears, but that would be really strange given the wealth of other things with actors in elf ears without this problem

to hebrew then some yiddish-esque language that is both mannish and khuzdul might exist as well, which you could indicate on screen with yiddish
c) that idea is sort of supported because we know that khuzdul heavily influenced the languages of men
d) i could go on but that’s the gist
November 14, 2025 at 3:32 PM
so there are layers here:
a) at least in the hobbit, it’s very clear that the images of jews that tolkien is drawing on are of historical ashkenazim, thus yiddish speaking
b) i don’t think it’s either yiddish or hebrew here moreso there is the suggestion that if khuzdul is analogous (cont’d)

well, he could probably be convinced to spy on gondorian political enemies for treats

for all his reputation as a deep lore writer, a lot of tolkien’s skill with disturbing elements is actually the refusal to explain further. something Terrible happens to characters and we are not given the comfort of knowing what something was, Things stalk in the night and are never explained, etc.
