RozaŭtunoOne rule to rule them all
maria [she/her]Sick. Is this an acutal language on the keys, or just lord of the rings jibberish?
SpuddaccinoBoth.
Tolkien constructed an actual language for use in his works, and the gibberish you see on the keyboard is that language.
Other way around, actually: he started out making constructed languages for fun, realized that doing that properly required inventing the cultural and historical context in which it developed, and then, later, started writing fiction set in that world.
It’s Tengwar (I think)
Technically it’s an alphabet, not a language (excluding the keys with actual words on them and not just letters). The letters are called Tengwar and in the lore they’re Elvish letters, but you can use them to write in other languages like English. Even in universe they’re used for other languages like on the inscription of the One Ring, which is in Black Speech.
Have you found an official alphabet to use with the Latin alphabet for comparison?
OK thank you, I need to look deeper info that because not every letter is included.
AdrianTheFrogI don’t know much about it but I think the vowels are included as diacritics over the consonants.
OmegaMouseThat’s actually really cool. Why is there a little screen on the top right??
For the dog.
Keyboard in the dream be like
What bindings does it have though?
tetraodonCtrl - them - all
Love this. What key cap set is this? Also what’s the keyboard? Looks like you’ve got a flip cover on the top right two switches
MechanizeI’m unsure about the keyboard but the caps are from the Drop + The Lord of the Rings MT3 Elvish Keycap Set
The keyboard is a Zoom75. I got mine recently and love it!
It’s definitely some kind of elvish
WHERE CAN I ORDER THIS???
It’s the Drop LotR keycap set. I think they have some 60% pre-fab. The one above is a custom.
… I may have built a keyboard for each language…
I see that tiny latin alphabet for cheaters!
Its accurate in that it matches the popular LOTR fonts, but you can’t just type normally and have the correct words appear without first running it through a program.
