Also, you will find included terms expressing numbers of types of elfae people that you won’t find in the traditional lore but which we have encountered in our own lives as we have wandered about the modern world. In the Elven Urban Dictionary, you will find a variety of elfin colloquial terms that relate specifically to our elfin life and community, including words describing our many varieties of Elfaerie folk, our elfin culture, language, magic, unique spiritual perspective and way of life. It also has some traditional terms that we have redefined for our own s’elves.* Elven Urban Dictionary further has words from our magical elven language Arvyndase (see our book The Complete Dictionary of Arvyndase) and some words that you won’t find in that book but, for those who study Arvyndase, can be added as an addendum to that work. For it is still, after all, a language in process of becoming.*The terms included in this dictionary are presented in alphabetical order according to their English equivalent (which you may find listed in the table of contents) and then will be followed by the Arvyndase word and its meaning in English. However, in some cases, it begins with an Arvyndase word, of which there is no English word equivalent to it. So come enjoy a glimpse into our elven world through learning the terms and their meaning we elven use with each other in our day to day life and magic.* Please scroll below to find some sample pages of Elven Urban Dictionary: Elfin Colloquial Expressions and Terms of The Silver Elves. * “We elves are the pieces to the puzzlethat men think are lost
but the truth is they see us
and just can’t figure out how we fit in.”

“A cup of hot tea
and fine company,
and laughter and song,
and a sense we belong
are a spell that calls Faerie to us.”
Here below is a sample of Elven Urban Dictionary: Elfin Colloquial Expressions and Terms of The Silver Elves with a few pages for you to enjoy reading.
“In the following elven urban dictionary, the expression or term will be first presented in English (and is alphabetized throughout the book accordingly) and then will be followed by the Arvyndase word and its meaning in English. In some cases, for instance the first word ‘Acona’, it begins with an Arvyndase word, of which there is no English word equivalent to it.”
A.
Acona
(pronounced: A – con – nah) Plural: Aconåli (A – con – nah – lie) English: no precise translation in English for this term
“Aconas are a kind of imp that undermine their enemies by pretending to be their friends and then spreading false rumors about them behind their backs. On the surface, they appear to be quite friendly and even joyful as individuals. One thinks, ‘oh, what a nice person’. However, then they pull people aside for a private chat and tell them things about others that they know as if they are revealing some secret, horrible truth about the person, only it’s all false. Their goal ultimately is to keep people separate from each other so they are divided among thems’elves and not seeing that the Acona is the real villain, while acting as though they were everyone’s friend. Rich imps use this technique to control whole societies so that the impoverished fight among thems’elves and never see that it is the rich Aconas that are taking advantage of them.”
Aftermorning
Låkacalfdas (pronounced: lah – kay – cal-f – dace) Plural: Låkacalfdasli (lah – kay – cal-f – dace – lie)
“We elfae folk seldom get up before noon if we don’t have to do so. Well, some might be morning people, but most of us, we dare say, are not. We seldom see noon but we sometimes see morning for in doing so we know it is time to go to bed if we haven’t done so already. So, we don’t say good morning or good afternoon if it is just after morning to people but good aftermorning, which, as we say, is generally when we rise to start our day and do our chores, usually creative, before the night comes with the promise of dancing and other bits of fun and relaxation.”
Ageless
Nankan (pronounced: nay-n – cane) the singular also as the plural for this word
“We elves, and all other spirits really, are the Ageless. We elves generally experience a certain degree of longevity. We tend to live longer than most individuals of mankind and the normal folk, but this probably has less to do with genetics than the fact that we elfae folk exercise, eat healthy food and don’t overeat, nor do we do abuse your bodies, for the most part, through substance abuse (individual experiences may vary). However, all spirits are immortal and the energy which composes our bodies is also immortal. Our bodily forms may and clearly do change but the energy that composes those bodies remains in a transformed state. While our spirits, which inhabit our bodies, are also immortal energy. The real difference between elves and mankind is not longevity but consciousness. We have more continuity of consciousness than they usually do, which means we are more inclined to remember the flow of our life through myriads of incarnations into material forms.”
Aisledancer
Sylbifarfa (pronounced: sill – bye – fair – fah) Plural: Sylbifarfåli (sill – bye – fair – fah – lie)
“Aisledancers are the type of elves who don’t mind dancing out in public. They will dance in the aisle of grocery stores. They will dance to muzak on elevators. They will dance wherever there’s music playing and don’t care that the normal folk are watching and judging them. They are ‘out there’ elves and their dance isn’t for the normal folk anyway. It’s for thems’elves and their own entertainment and, of course, for those who have some elfae spirit in them. It is a call to the souls of the unawakened fae folk and especially to those who know they are fae but are afraid to be thems’elves in public.”
Ameliorator
Easasotofar (pronounced: e – a – so – toe – fair) Plural: Easasotofarli (e – a – so – toe – fair – lie)
“The Ameliorators are elven healers who primarily work by soothing the individual, releasing and reducing their stress and anxiety, which proves to be emotionally and mentally healing but is also very healing for the physical body. They use a variety of techniques for doing this from sound therapy to an elven form of reiki, to elvish qigong, to talk therapy, art therapy and other modalities. They are also often herbalists and will prescribe stress reducing herbs to affect the underlying tensions in the body that contribute to stress. The modern world can be a very stressful place but with the help of the Ameliorators one is able to move through it with a minimum of distress.”
Antfolk
Nesnorehar (pronounced: neice – nor – e – hair) no plural is needed in this particular instance
“Antfolk is really a reference to the fact that we Silver Elves see all beings as being conscious in their own right. Sometimes, they have their own unique personalities and certainly their own consciousness and ways of being. Science is also slowly coming to this realization about the natural world around us. To us, ants are people, too, with their own world and ways of being in the world. We don’t dismiss the lives of ants or their importance, out of hand, as so many of mankind and the normal folk do, just because we don’t speak their language or that they are very small beings. They are amazing creatures in their own way as most creatures are. And their lives, as far as we know, are just as important, perhaps more so, than ours and they are just as beloved, perhaps more, to the Shining Ones. We are part of this world together and we are all on the path of evolution. In this vein, we honor them and see them as kindred. Surely there are ants in Faerie, although probably, like the ants here, they’re too busy to speak to us.”
Appletreefae
Jufialdåfarth (pronounced: ju – fie – ale – dah – fair-th) Plural: the singular is also the plural in this instance
“The Appletreefae are dryads that live in relationship to the apple trees. They are significant because they are also very much associated with the ancient Druids and, in particular, with Merlin the elven magician. You will also find mistletoe growing upon their branches at times, and mistletoe is also commonly associated with the Druids. Merlin was rumored in some tales to have an apple grove that he took around with him, which links him to the legend of Johnny Appleseed who planted apple trees all over North America. These dryads are generous folk and have and continue to offer the fruit of their trees to all who desire them.”
Aura
Espri (pronounced: e – spry) Plural: there is no need for a plural form of this word
“Aura is generally used to speak of the glow or halo that surrounds individuals with the notion that those who are holy may have a stronger or brighter aura. We know that the body radiates heat and that when one looks through night vision glasses this becomes apparent. Those who are psychic can often see the physical aura that radiates from the body. However, aura is also used to mean a more subtle radiance of being and of this the Elf Queen’s Daughters wrote saying “Aura is the elves” (see our books Elf Magic Mail, book 1 & 2). For, to we elven folk, aura is also our personality, our charisma and the radiant power of our enchantments. Aura is not merely light but the light of our inner magical being radiating out into the world influencing others through our example and our manifest being. It is the magic that surrounds us and emanates from us.”
Awakening
Vasåtadas (pronounced: vay – sah – tah – dace) Plural: Vasåtadasli (vay – sah – tah – dace – lie)
“Awakening is the term we Silver Elves use to indicate our’selves and other elfae beings who have awakened to their true elfin, faerie or otherkin nature. The Awakening is just the beginning when one accepts and understands who one truly is. Most often, however, prior to one’s awakening, one has always inwardly felt different from the normal folk around one and has ever felt that one is an unusual and surely exceptional being. Awakening merely represents the understanding one’s gains that one is different from most of the society around one because one is of an ‘other’ nature. However, embracing that difference and enduring upon the path is the true indication of one’s elfin being. If one is truly an elfae being, one will persist upon the path throughout time. Even if one strays temporarily, one will always return to the path for with it is to be found our destiny and the realization, fulfillment and illumination of our true beings, which are magic.” . . . .
B.
Bårdor
(pronounced: bar – door) Plural: Bardorli (bar – door – lie) English: no exact English word for this
“Bårdors are ancient gnomes who are masters of lore and the bardic arts. Note that the word Bardor (bare – door) is the Arvyndase word for author. This is Bårdor (bar – door) and refers specifically to a gnomish author, which implies someone who is quite knowledgeable and probably a philosopher. In modern times, gnomes are generally viewed a rustic folk that you often find statues of on people’s lawns. We Silver Elves have over 500 statues/teraphim in our eald (home) and among these are dozens of gnomes. In ancient times, however, gnomes were seen as great scholars, wizards and wise ones and as being quite clever as well. Thus, the word gnomic, which refers to short, pithy maxims or aphorisms. Also, note that when Tolkien first wrote about elves, he originally called them gnomes. They were not always seen as the short pudgy folk that they are today.”
Beaverfae
Nalnafarth (pronounced: nail – nah – fair-th) the singular also serves as the plural
“Beaverfae were ancient fae folk who lived like beavers. They built dams across rivers and streams and created unwater homes that could only be entered from diving into the water, although the interior of their homes was dry. They also dressed in skins of the animals that they would hunt, although they never hunted the beavers, whom they looked upon as their close relatives and from whom they had learned much of what they knew and whom they referred to as the wise teachers. These fae don’t exist in that form anymore, as far as we know. However, you will find some of them, in modern times, living near dams but mostly they just tend to live in small, very cozy, often cluttered homes. They seem especially fond of basement apartments.” . . . .
Blest
Elsorïn (pronounced: eel – soar – in) Plural: no plural needed
“We Silver Elves often use the word Blest instead of Blessed because to us Blest indicates that one has been blest by Nature or the Shining Ones or other beings, while Blessed can indicate that or denote that one is a Blessed being or holy being. At the same time, it is a curious thing that in Arvyndase the word Elsorïn is translated into English as both Blest and Blessed. We suppose we could add the suffix -dor to Elsor (blest) to be Blest, thus Elsordor, although a literal translation would then be Blest-est, which conveys the idea of most Blest, which isn’t quite accurate either. Or we could add a ‘d’ to the end and make it Elsord (eel – sword). Yes, we think that’s what we might do in the future. Arvyndase, continues to grow and transform.”
Blind Guide
Retforen (pronounced: reet – for – reen) Plural: Retforenli (reet – for – reen – lie)
“The Blind Guides are fae folk who are blind but serve as guides. You have heard of the ‘blind leading the blind’, well, these are the blind leading the sighted who are temporarily blind because they are journeying in dark places where there is little or no light. These are the realms of the Blind Guides and they know them intimately and can guide the kindred through these dark realms safely. If you are journeying into the dark on your adventures, you may wish to engage the assistance of the Blind Guides who will find the way through the darkest of places. And even if they have never been there before, they will find the way. You just have to trust them and hang on to their hand or a rope or whatever and heed well their instructions.”
Bloodkin
Sangeldi (pronounced: sang – eel – dye) Plural: the singular is also used as the plural
“Bloodkin refers to the notion that many people have that our elven nature is genetically passed on through the ‘blood’; or genes, actually, but blood is the most ancient way of thinking about it before we discovered DNA. Some elfae folk are still of the mind that our elvish nature and our magic is passed on genetically. However, we Silver Elves have the understanding that it is not ‘genes’ that pass on our elvish nature and abilities, but our immortal ‘spirits’. This is because we also understand that our spirits reincarnate and when we become sufficiently powerful and experienced, we can choose whatever genetic body we wish to reincarnate within according to our mission in this life, which is our purpose, and the lessons we wish to learn and the abilities we desire to develop. This is only limited by our karma or past life actions, which we strive to purify so we have the widest choice available to us when the time comes.”
Bluecutie
Zurlåsath (pronounced: zoo-r – lahss – eighth) Plural: Zurlåsathli (zoo-r – lahss – eighth – lie)
“The Bluecuties were a singing group composed of elves, faeries and faerie elves who were all elfin princesses and who wore long blue gowns with white lace cuffs and collars when they performed. And they were, really, quite cute and lovely and much beloved by their fans. They often performed for various royalty, especially on special occasions such as an elf lord or lady’s birthday, or their anniversary or some other event or at ‘state’ events, which is also to say tribal events such as the gathering of the tribes. Often their performance came as a surprise. They did not advertise their intention to perform ahead of time so the royal to whom the performance was dedicated would find it to be an unexpected gift of the best and most elvish kind.”
Bluewitch
Zurzidor (pronounced: zoo-r – zie – door) Plural: Zurzidorli (zoo-r – zie – door – lie)
“Bluewitches are ladies of the Winter Court of the Elfae peoples. It is sometimes said that they are blue due to the extreme cold they thrive in; however, we are more of the opinion that they are inclined to wear pale blue and white clothes. They are particularly noted for being the patron of the deer folk and they feed them and look after them through the winter months. In the far north or south where it tends to be winter most of the time, they ensure that the deer can survive the harsher conditions. Of course, they are also noted for riding reindeer as their primary means of transportation or ride in sleights that are pulled by reindeer. It is possible that the legends of Santa Claus are actually based upon the Bluewitches.”
E.
Elderfae
Elsodofarth (pronounced: eel – so – dough – fair-th) no plural is needed here
“Elderfae sounds like fae who are very old but, in fact, Elderfae refers to those fae who often work as caregivers and take care of the elderly, especially the very olde and ancient elfae folk. We Silver Elves have worked as Elderfae, although, in fact, we weren’t taking care of the elderly but helping a faerie sister who was going through chemo. So, she wasn’t old exactly but seemed old due to her condition. We have also worked as brownies, which is to say cleaning people’s homes for them. Although, unlike brownies, we didn’t actually live with the individuals we cleaned for. Elderfae are usually gentle folk but strong because they often have to lift individuals or things. But then, you could say that most elfin folk are actually both gentle (usually) and much stronger than we appear.”
Elfae
Êldåfarth (pronounced: L – dah – fair-th) Plural: This is used in both as singular and plural.
“Elfae is a word we Silver Elves use to indicate all fae peoples, which is to say elves, faeries, brownies, pixies, sprites, merfolk and even dwarves, orcs, goblins, grimlins and other folk who tend to be on the Unseelie (hostile toward mankind and sometimes each other) side of things. However, this does not include dragons, unicorns and other creatures of Faerie or various Cyberkin, who would be more likely to be classified by us as otherkin. Although, otherkin is a more expansive definition and would generally include elfae folk within it. We could use the word fae instead of elfae, which we sometimes do, however, that inclines people to think primarily of faeries and, being elves, we appreciate being noted as well.”
Elf Ear
Êlda Pol (pronounced: L – dah Pole) Plural: Êlda Polli (L – dah Pole – lie)
“You may note that most modern elves don’t actually have pointed ears nor do faeries have genuine wings but we elves and the faeries often wear our elf ears or faerie wings, just as women among men will wear nail polish, lipstick, eyeliner and other forms of makeup and often high heels as well as fake nails and eyelashes. It is a cultural custom and affectation. The idea of elves and faeries having pointed ears or wings is a later idea created, we expect, by illustrators of the nineteenth century to distinguish elven folk by our appearance. Whereas, most of the ancient lore doesn’t every mention faeries having wings or being very tiny either, and we elves don’t have pointed ears. However, as it happens, the idea that elves have pointed ears and faeries have wings is, perhaps, most popular among we elves and faeries. We love the idea, which is why we have embraced these affectations as our own. When we wear our elf ears or faerie wings, we are announcing that we are elfae folk, in the same way Christians sometimes wear crosses to declare their spiritual affiliation.”
Elfhaven
Êldåfaryn (pronounced: L – dah – fair – ren) Plural: This is used in both as singular and plural.
“Êldåfaryn is the name we Silver Elves have given to our eald, which is to say, our home. However, in saying that we don’t mean the physical structure our residence per se. Êldåfaryn is the place where we abide. We may change houses or apartments but wherever we live is still Êldåfaryn for it is an energetic aura that goes with us and settles wherever we settle down for however long. We elves commonly name our homes, sometimes our cars, swords and other things. For while they are constructs, rather than being bioorganic creatures, they have energetic resonance that builds up through our association, living and use. They acquire ambience through our magic that radiates outwardly in the same way the Ring of Power did, only in a more healing and surely less nefarious fashion.”
Elfin
Êldat (pronounced: L – date) Plural: Êldatli (L – date – lie)
“When we Silver Elves use the word Elfin and it is capitalized, we are using it in the way that people use the word Elfland to indicate the realm of we elven folk. We don’t use Elfland ours’elves because to us Elfin is not a specific territory, such as China, France, Thailand, etc. with designated borders and boundaries, but an energetic place that is created by our manifestation as the elves we are in the world. Elfin can be anywhere we are because it is the ambience, vibration and illumination of our being and magic. When we use the word elfin, without a capital letter, we are using it in the traditional form as an adjective that means people or things that are of an elfin or elvish nature. Of course, when it comes at the beginning of a sentence it is capitalized and it then depends upon the reader to comprehend in what context it is being used.”
Elf Queen’s Daughter
Êldå Ralto’na Sorso (pronounced: L – dah Rail – toe’nah Soar – so) Plural: Êldå Ralto’na Sorsoli (L – dah Rail – toe’nah Soar – so – lie)
“The Elf Queen’s Daughters, or EQD for short, were a small group of individuals who manifested as their true elven s’elves in the mid to late 1970’s. We sent out three letters a week (by snail mail, thus requiring just one stamp for postage) called the Elf Magic Mail (see our two books of that title that reproduces the contents of those letters with commentary by we Silver Elves) and we connected with other elves who opened vortexes around the United States and in France. Note the Arvyndase word Ralto used for queen here is also the Arvyndase word for king. We elves don’t really differentiate between kings and queens among ours’elves or if we need to do so we add a gender designation such as Ralto Frat (pronounced: feight) meaning male or Ralto Sorta (soar – tah) meaning female, so essentially Monarch female or male, although the word for monarch in Arvyndase is actually monsyl (moan – sill).”
Elven Monarch
Êldata Monsyl (pronounced: L – date – tah Moan – sill) Plural: Êldata Monsylli (L – date – tah Moan – sill – lie)
“Elven Monarchs are not hereditary, actually. Nor do they seize power, like a tyrant. They are elected, sort of. This is to say that being an elven king or queen is not a station or position of authority save the authority of one’s own charisma and personality. They are elected in the sense that other elfae declare them to be an elven queen or king but, again, this is merely a recognition of the deeds they have done for the elfae peoples. There are those, of course, who would disagree with this. They are certain that they are an elven king or queen due to their blood or genetics and are not shy in telling others about this. Curiously, in a way, it is more often female elves who do this than the male. But then, elfae society has ever been a more feminine culture, quite in contrast to that of mankind. Still, we Silver Elves assert that true royalty comes from one’s deeds and cannot be inherited, except as we follow the example of those elfae who live their lives for our elvish peoples and do all that they can to empower, foster and nurture our being.”
Elven Ritual
Êldata Mårvar (pronounced: L – date – tah Mar – vair) Plural: Êldata Mårvarli (L – date – tah Mar – vair – lie)
“We Silver Elves don’t have official ceremonies or rituals that we follow or perform. We do have daily rituals of magic that we do but they are individual and unique and ones we created for our own magic. We, for example, do the I Ching every day (see our book The Elven Book of Changes) as well as other rituals. And most of the magic that we do is by way of enchantment, which is mostly spontaneous, impromptu and ad hoc. We do have two books about ceremonial magic (The Book of Elven Magic, 1 & 2) that we wrote, but they are, like nearly all our books about magic, examples and suggestions about how one can create their own magic rituals. For we elves don’t expect people to necessarily do the same rituals we do, but rather we encourage them to create their own rituals for their own needs, intentions and purposes.”
Elvish Fiddler
Êldatu Lykvåfar (pronounced: L – date – two Lick – vah – fair) Plural: Êldatu Lykvåfarli (L – date – two Lick – vah – fair – lie)
“Elvish Fiddlers are sometimes known for playing the fiddle. But really, what they are best known for is fiddling around with nearly everything. When they are quite young, they begin taking everything apart to see how it works. They will take radios, televisions, toasters and every other appliance to pieces in an attempt to comprehend their workings. And they continue this behavior pretty much throughout their lives. They are natural Mr. Fix Its. They can repair almost anything. Most of them, however, become inventors as they move toward their teenage years. Note that the Arvyndase word Êldatu used for the English word elvish is also used for the word elfish.”
Enchantment
Syrandir (pronounced: sir – rain – dire) Plural: Syrandirli (sir – rain – dire – lie)
“Enchantment is now and has ever been the chief magic of elfae folk. This is according to all the lore and tales about us and it is what we Silver Elves have observed in our own lives as elves and our observations of our elfae peoples. Our ancient sisters of the Elf Queen’s Daughters used to say that “Aura is the Elves” (see our books Elf Magic Mail, book 1 & 2 for the texts and commentary about the original elf letters of the EQD). Aura is enchantment. Enchantment is the power of our personality and the ‘vibes’ we radiate. By developing ours’elves as the elfae folk we are, by becoming ever truer to our true natures and ever more attuned to Nature, genuine in our being and sincere in our relationships. We move with ease and are ‘comfortable in our own skin’ and enchantment naturally flows from us without any effort needed other than that of improving ours’elves in every way we can.”
Endlessgarden
Zedkangarflu (pronounced: zeed – cane – gair – flew) Plural: Zedkangarfluli (zeed – cane – gair – flew – lie)
“Endlessgarden is a sort of lifestyle and abode fashion that is especially popular among gnomes and brownies, but also speaks to the hearts of some faeries and elves as well. It is simply one where one’s home is surrounded by a garden. Also, the inside of one’s house has so many plants in it that it is like a garden as well. There may be a fence around the place with a gate or two, and inside, of course, there will be beds and a kitchen and so forth, but still, it is like living in the middle of a garden. Some people, of course, would complain about the potential for bugs but these folk don’t mind. Although, they do pick away the bugs that can be harmful to their plants, but otherwise insects are just housemates as far as these elfae are concerned.”
Eraser
Ahartfar (pronounced: a – hair-t – fair) Plural: Ahartfarli (a – hair-t – fair – lie)
“Erasers are elfae sorcerers who have the power to erase your memory of them completely. They don’t usually do this in an instantaneous fashion but rather cast a spell on the person who seems, right at first, to remember them fully but very soon their memories of the elfae sorcerer begin to fade to the point that they don’t recall encountering them at all. Although, it is true that deep in their subconscious their memories will remain. However, often the encounter with the sorcerer seems so fantastic that the person, while briefly remembering them, just can’t believe that it really happened for it goes against all their normal assumptions of what life is and what constitutes reality.”
Exchangeling
Jenalvåsfar (pronounced: gee – nail – vahss – fair) Plural: Jenalvåsfarli (gee – nail – vahss – fair – lie)
“What most people refer to as Changelings, we Silver Elves call Exchangelings. Fortunately, this doesn’t really happen in modern times but there was a time, way, way back, when Men were endeavoring with all their might to eliminate our kind altogether and to make our race extinct (as the Nazis tried to do to the Jews, Romany and others) and some elves, in desperation, would hide our children among mankind, taking men’s littles and raising them, while leaving ours to be raised by them. This was a tragic situation, more so because if the men involved discovered the baby was one of ours, they would kill it in horrible ways. Not to mention the fact that our precious and beloved children, if they did survive, would be raised by harsh and cruel men. Some people say that this was the beginning of the creation of orcs, etc. This was before we came to understand spiritual heritage, rather than blood/genetic heritage, and mastered the astral plane to the point where we could selectively reincarnate among men in order to preserve our culture.”
