Best Answer

Trolls are evil imitations of the Ents brought into being during the Song of the Ainur at the beginning when Melchor corrupted the words and melody of a part of the song.

Trolls are very stupid, large creatures, that are always hungry, but turn into stone when exposed to the light of the sun.

Why does Tolkien have the trolls speak Cockney in The Hobbit?

Unlike the trolls in 'LOTR', the trolls in The Hobbit were used for comic relief. The Hobbit is, after all, a childen's story - Tolkien wrote it originally for his own kids, and the troll episode was their favourite part of the whole tale. The idea was trolls could speak a debased form of 'westron' (the 'common tongue'), so Tolkien represented that in English through a Cockney dialect, which in his opinion was probably 'common'. Hope that helps :)
