LotR: Realms in Exile | Untranslated Westron

Description
You think the protagonist of Lord of the Rings is called 'Frodo'?? Um???? That's from old english, like from real lfe europe? That's ridiculous, the Red Book of Westmarch was translated from specifically the Kudugin dialect of Adûni long before such a thing as 'english' could have possibly existed! But because fantasy is for children the true linguistic beauty of tolkien's legendarium was watered down into this 'english' to appeal to the lowest common denominator, it's truly a tragedy. But now our team of Tolkien-Scholars have finally brought Tolkien's real vision to life! Experience the true beauty of Westron as it was intended (Rohan not included)

Really though tolkien never fleshed out westron or adûnaic to enough of an extent where even the core characters of lord of the rings could be canonically named in it, i had to squeeze every drop from know adûnaic and rohirric just to get half of the hobbits something and filled in the rest with guesses all over the tolkien side of the internet
This is just for fun please tolkien-nerds i'm sorry i've included notes in the files for all the names and words chosen pls

The hero of linguist geeks didn't even name the hobbits in their native language.

This franchise has now been eternally ruined for me.
