I guess they read the silmarillion, but understood not the words they read.

To be fair, can anyone understand The Silmarillion? The way it is written is hard even when you are literate.

[–] arctanthrope@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago (2 children)

when reading The Silmarillion, it's important to remember that Finrod, the brother of Galadriel, is different from Fingon. Fingon is Finrod's cousin, and also the brother of Turgon. Fingon and Turgon's father is Fingolfin, who is the brother of Finarfin, who is Finrod's father. you'll have a hard time following the story if you don't keep all those straight
