'"Welcome!" the elf said again in the Common Language,
speaking slowly. "We seldom use any tongue but our own; for we dwell now in the heart of the forest and do not willingly have
dealings with any other folk. Even our own kindred in the North are sundered from us. But there are some of us who go abros

my name. My brothers, Rumil and Orophin, speak little of your tongue."' FotR pg. 384
