A Working List & Key for the Quenyan Equivalent of Tolkien Names & Locations

This is for Tolkien fans new & old. Since I plan to try & post here more often & I refuse to use the mandated Sindarin tongue whenever it’s possible, I’m providing this working list for folks to reference. This is not a flex of knowledge nor intent to gate-keep Tolkien but a Secondary World sociopolitical move—i.e. rejection of Elwë Sindiculo & all his mandates. All my homies hate Elwë Sindiculo 🤝
