Haha, indeed we could! Maitimo and Finno, the Elves Who Can Sing Italian (and German, French, Spanish, and a touch of Norwegian and Russian)! 🤣🎶

But not Finnish, the language closest to Quenya.🤣

Sorry, haven’t learned any songs in that language yet. However, I guess I could also add a little Sindarin to the list too, come to think of it…

For me, I can sing/have sang Hebrew, Latin, Chinese, Spanish, German, French, Russian, Hawaiian, Swahili, and Solfege.

That's a lot!!!

I've only done Italian and German officially, but I've done Russian informally on my own time (learning how to sing Призрак Оперы, Phantom of the Opera in Russian).

I was blessed with an amazing choir teacher in high school who loved different language songs~ I have him to thank for most all of them!

How much of what you sing in all of those languages do you understand?

The translations are printed on the backs of all the works. Not that I have them still, but I remember the gist of most of them.

Oooh, I can add Korean to that list! Children's Christmas songs, but still!
