Re: Quenya/Sindarin resources?

My personal favorites:

http://www.uib.no/People/hnohf/
The Ardalambion has a Quenya Course with lessons that you may find useful.

http://www.elvish.org/gwaith/
The Fellowship of the Word Smiths has a small (incomplete?) course on
Sindarin, as well as translations of the lines found in the movie.

I'm sure there are more that you could find by visiting the links at
both of those sites.

Good luck!
