In reference to real world dialects
I think that this is really interesting as it isn't "old" or "modern" Sindarin, it's a weird mix of both with it's own personal set of rules and spelling. It's like how certain cities have their own take on the languages of their countries/cultures. For example Naples in Italy, and Valencia in Spain. But I think the one it's most like is Sicily in Italy as Sicilian is recognised as it's own separate language from Italian, much like how Doriathrin is considered it's own language/dialect from "OS" or "MS". I wish there was more information on it, as well as the culture of Doriath and the first age Sindar. Terfinrod (talk) 16:27, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
