Nur-ellen

Nur-ellen (the name means 'Low Elvish') is an abandoned conlang project by Jörg Rhiemeier. The idea behind Nur-ellen was that Middle-earth was the past of the real world (which is the notion entertained by J. R. R. Tolkien himself), and that a few Elves were left in the modern world, whose language was Nur-ellen, a descendant of Sindarin. The inspiration came from a Tolkien fan fiction story, Home Eleven by Martin Baker, which was based on this kind of scenario.

Nur-ellen was an active-stative language which had a system of marking degrees of volition. The Nur-ellen noun had two cases: the agentive (unmarked; used for agent subjects) and the objective (marked with an initial mutation; used for non-agent subjects and objects). Inanimate nouns lacked the agentive case.

The language was never developed in full, and soon abandoned in favour of the Albic project which took over some features of Nur-ellen but severed the link to Tolkien's conlangs.
