Divided into four sections, the first is a Quenya dictionary, containing an entry for each Quenya word, whether in the corpus and derived from such word [the entry structure is: word (note) (analysis) part of speech, meaning; elucidation of meaning, other forms, further notes, references]. The second part is a similar dictionary of Proto-Eldarin. The third part is a dictionary of Ante-Quenya, an early version of Quenya which appears in the essay ''A Secret Vice.'' The fourth part is an index to the first three, arranged by the English word.

Compiled from the following sources: The Lord of the Rings, Nomenclature of 'The Lord of the Rings', The Silmarillion, Pictures by J.R.R. Tolkien, Unfinished Tales, The Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien, and The Monsters and the Critics and Other Essays.
