Even though Nûrlâm started as derivative of Shadowlandian, it became a clearly distinct dialect. This page will summarize the differences between standard Nûrlâm and Shadowlandian dialects besides the dictionary.

Shortly, Nûrlâm is different mostly in treating:

• suffixes -um and -at of Tolkien's Classical Black Speech;
• pronoun system
• plural number of nouns and adjectives
• grammar of verbs
