'''Ilkorin''' (plural ''Ilkorindi'') is a [[Quenya]] word, literally meaning "not of [[Kôr]]".  The Ilkorindi were a [[Elf (Middle-earth)|group of Elves]] from [[J. R. R. Tolkien]]'s [[fictional universe]]. They first appear in ''[[The Book of Lost Tales]]''. It was then a name with a broad meaning for all the Elves who "never saw the light of Kôr" and also for their many tongues. Kôr was the Quenya name for a hil(contracted; show full)

So Lemberin became the name for the tongue of the [[Teleri]]n Elves that remained in Beleriand. Before the coming of the [[Noldor]] it was spoken far and wide in Beleriand (save in [[Ossiriand]]) and all the names of places, of rivers, woods, fields, plains, hills and mountains were given in this tongue.
