How are hobbits not like ordinary people?
Hobbits are similar to Dwarves, except without the beards and axes. The hobbits live in the hilly Shire. Dwarves live in mines. Tolkien described the hobbits as "children" as they are only three feet tall. They also have hairy feet. Tolkien wanted to give the idea of hobbits being a lot like children. They love to eat, have fun, have parties and gossip. Tolkien also wanted to add some sort of innocent, good natured race as well as the dwarves and elves, who prefer to keep themselves to themselves. Hobbits fitted this criteria perfectly. Despite their lack in stature, they had very big feet.

There was no known language for the Hobbits. According to Tolkien "There is no record of any language peculiar to Hobbits." They spoke the langauge of the menfolk they lived near, usually the Common Speech, e.g. Westron.
