In the extended versions after the battle for Helms Deep, Gimli says a line where he references the central nervous system; something they surely would not know about in a fantasy setting!

    Honestly in cases like these, i just like to think that english doesnt exist at all in canon and instead the common language has been translated to english for us, including common phrases and euphemisms being altered to suit to our current vernacular.
