| And work now begins on the etymologies of particular Hobbit words shared with the Rohirrim and the folk of the Eotheod! After all, the Stoors were those most likely to have had extensive dealings with the fathers of the Rohirrim in the days they dwelt alongside the banks of the Anduin and its tributaries! Author Reply: Of course, I had to put that in, since it's canon! And I think Merry is going to have a good time with this one. | |

| Another bond with the Gamgee family, hmmm? Frodo is going to have so much to rejoice over when Sam finally comes to tell him! :) Namarie, God bless, Antane :) Author Reply: Yep. I am quite certain that if the Gamgees married into the Tooks, they also did with the Brandybucks! It just seems natural. | |

| Yay, and now here's another project - the mysterious connection between Hobbits and Rohirrim. Go, Merry! Author Reply: Well, that's told in the Prologue as well: He also wrote a short treatise on Old Words and Names in the Shire showing a special interest in discovering the kinship with the language of the Rohirrim of such 'shire-words' as mathoms and old elements in place names. So, naturally that is his *next* project! | |

| The Professor would like Merry's fascination with words and languages! Merry did a great job with his Annals of the West and taking into account that there will be many weddings in his family, there will also be grandchildren who will read those books themselves some day and pass them on afterwards. So, Merry's work will live on! Frodo would indeed be proud! Author Reply: I think that the Professor gave Merry that fascination, LOL! I am sure that's exactly what he had in mind when he took the task on. He does not want that history to be forgotten! | |
