Talk:Númenor

So what name DOES this place have in the Elvish languages? The article says that it was called Anadûnë in the mannish language, so Númenor must be an Elvish name - and it's of Quenya origin, but not Quenya. So it's Sindarin? In Lord of the Rings, all Dúnedain refer to it as Númenor and not Westernesse (it is only called Westernesse by Frodo and the narrator). So without knowing the language, but considering that other men in Minas Tirith have a favour for Elvish names like Perian for Halfling, this is a save guess for me.

But then why does the article also say that this place is called Andor by the elves? What language is that name, and from what time period is it? I'm confused. - Comartinb 18:30, July 24, 2010 (UTC)
