Hi,

 

I am Carlos Eduardo, Brazilian, 17 years old.

I don't participe in discutions because my english is not good to write. :(

 

I know Tolkien created a new alphabet to his story and it is based in runes. His "runes" is like elder futhark in appearence, but dont have the same characteristics, and, sometimes, have other sound.

    Here's something interesting:  I was just watching Lord of the Rings:  The Fellowship of the Ring and there's a part when they're in a cave reading a dwarvish book.  I only caught a glimpse of it, but it appears to me that the book was written in the Elder Futhark.  I know Tolkien had studied Old Norse and Old English, so this does seam feasible.  Did anybody else notice it?
