Hobbit (word) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Hobbit (word) The invention of the word ''hobbit'' is traditionally ascribed to J. R. R. Tolkien, whose ''The Hobbit'' was first published in 1937. The ''Oxford English Dictionary'' since the 1970s has credited Tolkien with the invention of the word. Since then, however, it has been noted that there is prior evidence of the word, in a 19th-century list of legendary creatures. In 1971, Tolkien stated that he remembered making up the word himself, admitting that there was nothing but his "nude parole" to support the claim that he was uninfluenced by similar words of the hobgoblin family. == Use by Tolkien ==
