Catching up on backed-up email....

I don't know of a "Quenya for Dummies" book, or any such book for any conlang. But there is a kind of fun book for the Na'vi language, entitled "The Easiest Way to Learn Na'vi-- EVER!" It is only $4.84 for a nicely printed version of the book on Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/The-Easiest-Way-Learn-Navi--EVER/dp/1461002567/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1361499379&sr=8-1&keywords=Learn+Na%27vi+the+easy+way or you can download it for free from LearnNavi.org http://forum.learnnavi.org/beginners/the-easiest-way-to-learn-navi-ever!!-%28is-finally-here%29/  (In case you are wondering, the author's name Kaltxì Palulukan is a word play on 'Hello Kitty!')

Na'vi is a good language to build passwords from, as it uses a couple of unusual vowel characters and the apostrophe character as a 'letter'.

If you study a constructed language enough to understand the inflected forms of its words, you can create understandable passwords that do not exist in any dictionary, anywhere.

And now that I think about it, there is a Na'vi for Dummies book, but it is written in French.

Enjoy!

I'm not smart enough for anything without a yellow cover and a goofy guy on the front.
"Dummies for Golf" replaced the regular goofy guy with a pic of Gary MacCord the author.
I developed a "Chief Engineer for Dummies" for when I'm on vacation.
