FAQ / What language was the inscription on the Ring made in

Ash nazg durbatulūk, ash nazg gimbatul,
ash nazg thrakatulūk agh burzum-ishi krimpatul.

One ring to rule them all, one ring to find them,
one ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them.

Pure Black Speech.

"It is said that the Black Speech was devised by Sauron in the Dark Years," Appendix E informs us, "and that he had desired to make it the language of all those that served him, but he failed in that purpose."
