Tengwar

( a script )

A fictional script invented by J.R.R. Tolkien and used both for his fictional languages and for English. A special feature of this system is that characters do not have fixed sound values. Instead, a 'mode' with sound value assignments is developed independently for every language written with the script.

The following scripts were created based on this script (show family tree):

• Cirth
