Absolutely, as mentioned at the start of each lesson,
there is about a page worth of Tolkien’s original khuzdul.
So, clearly “yes”, this is neo-khuzdul using Tolkien’s work as a base.
If using only Tolkien’s original work it would not be possible to create these.

Hello,
I’m afraid lesson 2 is experiencing a bit of a delay and hence hasn’t been posted yet.
Though I should point out that lesson 2 and others will follow in the weeks to come.
Cheers,

I’m really excited about all this. I’ve always been one of the population that struggles with language even though I’m good at understanding the concept behind them, but the way you explain this looks like I might be able to understand it for once – and, I’m at a point where I have a lot of free time on my hands to dedicate to this, which is good too.
I considered learning Sindarian, but it got a bit flowery and the script looks like it would be rather complicated. Which set of runes is Neo-Khuzdul written in? I recognize a lot of them and I want to hazard a guess at Elder Futhark, but I could be wrong. It’s been a while since I really dug into runes.
Thanks,
Arrow.

Neo-Khuzdul is either written in Angerthas Moria or Angerthas Erebor. They are related to Elder Futhark, yet I would say a distant cousin.
You can find more on these runes in the documents available on this blog.
