(EDIT – This is Jitterbug talking here.  I about shit my pants when Nerves said that JRR Tolkien invented elves.  Holy fucking mother of hell, Nerves.  WTF?!  No.  He did not invent elves.  Please direct any and all hatemail to nerves@talkingship.com.  Elves were around in Germanic Mythology long, long ago.)

    This is what I was recalling. He invented the languages the elves speak not the actual elves. I thought I also read where the depiction was his creation and elves until his books were more like pixies. Sorry nerds. Don't kick me out of your brotherhood.
    Wiki: Author J. R. R. Tolkien created many languages for Elves, which eventuated in the creation of a mythology (expounded in his books), complete with races, to speak the tongues he had constructed. His interest was primarily philological, and he said his stories grew out of his languages. The languages were the first thing Tolkien created for his mythos, starting with what he originally called "Qenya", the first primitive form of Elvish. This was later called Quenya (High-elven) and is one of the two most complete of Tolkien's languages (the other being Sindarin, or Grey-elven). The phonology, vocabulary and grammar of Quenya and Sindarin are strongly influenced by Finnish and Welsh, respectively. In addition to these two, he also created several other (partially derived) languages.
