Which Elves searched for Elwe?
The Nandor? or The Sindar?

IIRC, the Nandor forsook the great march east of the river Anduin, and stayed there for a long time, while Elwe led his host into Beleriand. It was Elwe's folk that sought for him.

The nandor had not yet become a distinct people group at this time, I believe. Nor had the sindar. It was the third kindred that searched for him-they were made up of what would one day be the nandor, the sindar, the laiquendai, and the teleri. Avari too, but they had already split off.

The Nador were still on the far side of two moutains ranges at that time, The Blue and The Misty. It was his relative, retainers and friends among the Teleri (this group LATER got the name Sindar) who searched for him.

The dumb ones. If you think about it, he was not the best king. So, it would have not been a bad thing is he had remain lost.

“What does the term american refers to” asked the boy, and the wise man answered: “Lets look at the dictionary then.” As an adjective American is: 1.

As a noun American is: A native or inhabitant of America. A citizen of the United States. Then the boy asked, “What is America then?”, and the wise man looked at the dictionary again: 1.

Confused, the boy asked, “Does the term american refers solely to a us citizen or to any person in North, Central or South America?” The wise man replied: “What do you think?”, and the boy answered: “It is clear to me that while the term american is used to refers to us citizens, one can also use it to refer to any person who is from that continent too,” the boy thought for a while and asked the wise man, “Am I right?”, and he replied: “But of course.” The boy wondered, why is it that some people refuse to acknowledge the fact that the term american refers not only to US citizens but to anyone of the American continent?, but then sadly, the boy understood, that it is the calamity of ignorance. |
