| | khuzdul |
 | | Khuzdul also possesses unaspirated stops, like French and Russian k and t, but unlike the situation in both English, French and Russian, Khuzdul k and t are phonemes in their own right, that must be distinguished from kh and th. | | | The Khuzdul word Khazâd, "Dwarves", was adapted to Quenya as Casar "Dwarf" and to Sindarin as Hadhod (the Dwarvish race being called Hadhodrim, WJ:388). | | | This provides an interesting hint about how Khuzdul words are accented: The first vowel of salôn or sulûn would almost certainly be unaccented if it is to be lost like this, suggesting that it is rather the long vowel in the final syllable that receives the stress. |

| | LotR Fanatics Library: Khuzdul |
| | Such was the power of Khuzdul to a Dwarf. | | | Curufin, son of Fëanor, was an Elf who had friendship with the Dwarves - it was through him that lore masters knew about Dwarves and their language. | | | At least a few words made their way into the elvish tongues; Khuzdul kheled "glass" became Sindarin heledh, Khuzdul Khazâd "Dwarf", became Quenya Casar and Sindarin Hadhod, and vice versa - Khuzdul kibil "silver" must be from Sindarin celeb. |

| | Then the Dwarves actually were not unwilling to teach their own tongue to Men with whom they had special friendship, but Men found it difficult and were slow to learn more than isolated words, many of which they adapted and took into their own language. | | | In LOTR a certain dwarf yells a phrase in Khuzdul. | | | It changed so little that in the third age if a dwarf of Erebor met with a dwarf from the far east they would understand each other easily and have little accents. |

| | Fanatics Plaza: Dwarven Kingdom |
| | Khuzdul would possess no diphthongs proper but diphthongisation can happen with w and y after a and i respectively, so khawlad would become khaulad. | | | The secrecy goes so far that they have adopted a whole set of Mannish names to identify themselves outside of their own language. | | | This is important to know because Khuzdul as a rule does not allow double consonants at the beginning, and consonant clusters of more than two at all
That is a fixed rule
and to be able to read Khuzdul in latin letters we need to know what letter combinations describe what sound. |

| | Khuzdul - definition of Khuzdul in Encyclopedia |
| | This is because in the early days of Middle-Earth, before men crossed the mountains into Beleriand, they had contact to the Dwarves of the Blue Mountains and further East. | | | This is usually referred to as neo-Khuzdul by Tolkienists. | | | Among the languages of Middle-earth, Khuzdul is unique in belonging to a separate language phylum, not related to the languages of Elves. |

| | On Khuzdul and the Dwarves |
| | Even though they did not like teaching their language, they did not completely deny others the possibility to learn it, for example the House of Hador. | | | They were not unwilling to teach their own tongue to Men with whom they had special friendship, but Men found it difficult and were slow to learn more than isolated words, many of which they adapted and took into their own language.”(PoME: p.304) | | | Later on they used Khuzdul only as language of lore and preserved it as part of their heritage. |

| | The Dwarves kept themselves apart from the other races; their language, Khuzdul, was a closely guarded secret, and they told their true names to none but themselves (all the Dwarf-names in Tolkien are in the tongues of Elves or Men, not true Dwarf names). | | | Like Aul&; their maker, the Dwarves delighted in smithcraft and stoneworking; they mined and worked metals throughout the mountains of Middle-earth. | | | The first Dwarves were made long ages ago by Aul&; the Smith. |

| | Encyclopedia of Arda: Khuzdul |
| | With the exception of a few fragments and place-names, Tolkien gives us little insight into the Dwarvish tongue (as the Dwarves kept their tongue secret, it is natural that little of it should have survived in records). | | | The Dwarves also had secret 'inner' names, presumably derived from the Khuzdul tongue, but they were extremely secretive about these, to the extent that they were not even given on their owners' tombs. | | | The Dwarves would more commonly speak, even among themselves, in the native tongues of the regions in which they lived, to the extent that they took their names from these languages. |

| | Some Khuzdul myths have reported tales of sweeping wars in Midgaad between incredible forces of good and evil. | | | There is some intimation of a dark secret in Khuzdul past, so terrible that no Khuzdul will discuss it, but their reaction suggests great shame. | | | Of course, Midgaad is where the Sindarin of Harn originated, and probably the Khuzdul as well. |

| | I worked with John Howe and Grant Major on this; Grant wrote the texts he wanted rendered into Khuzdul (to be accurate: part Khuzdul, and part my own inventions), and I faxed back transcriptions into cirth. | | | All of this is actually attested Khuzdul (though much only in proper names), except for zahra, which is back-formed from -zahar 'building' in Tumunzahar 'Hollowbold', and turgul, which relates to tarâg 'beards', as khuzdul 'of dwarves, dwarvish' relates to khazâd 'dwarves'. | | | Not all Moria inscriptions are in Khuzdul (language of the Dwarves). |

| | Khuzdul worship the god Siem exclusively, for they believe that one of Siem's divine underlings, Sereniel, breathed life into the Khuzdul to end their long slumber. | | | The clan, in the mind of a Khuzdul, is of tantamount importance, and his loyalty to the clan is absolute. | | | This enmity has many reasons, but the greatest reason is the pillaging of an ancient Khuzan fortress, Kiraz, by the Gargun years ago. |
