What is the difference between a hobbit and a troll?
Trolls are much bigger than dwarves and hobbits, at least in Tolkien's world of Middle Earth. They are almost the equivalent of giants. They could pick up the hobbit with one hand.
How can a person have 3 shadows?
They can also have four. If you look at a football game, which is brightly lit from all corners of the stadium, the players will have four shadows. For three shadows, you need to be lit up from 3 corners (if you imagine a box around the person).
What does kendra mean in a bibical way?
Bibically, Kendra possibly could be linked to Sanskrit kendras, referring to the four prominent regions (corners) of the sky - western and eastern horizons, zenith, and nadir which make up the angular houses in an Aryuvedic medicine astrology chart.
Who is sharkey in the return of the king?
Sharkey was an alias for the White Wizard (i.e Saruman), most commonly seen in this form in the Shire where he started harassing the Hobbits there. However, both Merry and Pippin called upon farmers and members of the Shire to rise up and "stop the bullying" of Sharkey and his army.
How many meals do hobbits have?
Hobbits generally have six meals a day. "Their faces were as a rule good-natured rather than beautiful, broad, bright-eyed, red-cheeked, with mouths apt to laughter, and to eating and drinking. And laugh they did, and eat, and drink, often and heartily, being fond of simple jests at all times, and of six meals a day (when they could get them). They were hospitable and delighted in parties, and in presents, which they gave away freely and eagerly accepted."--from the prologue to The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien. Their six meals are typically these: breakfast, second breakfast, elevensies, luncheon, tea, and dinner.
