The little contact would have little to no influence. These are solitary people, and don't mingle. The little trade they do would have an entirely negligible affect.

Quenya and Sindarin are written from the point of view of an Englishman. It's entirely logical. The thing is, when it's written in Latin characters you're directly changing the representation, so it makes sense that if it's being changed you may aswell change it to your own language. And for the record, no, I'm not making my own alphabet. An English accent for hard to pronounce words. Simple as… also, if you haven't noticed, they don't change much, so these mystical influences aren't there. They are the original influence on elven things, and any other stuff would have to come back through the Nandor. Even then, these are elves living away from where the contact with the Nandor is, so the influences are close enough to nothing that it may aswell be nothing.

No. The elves are all white, the elves are all properly cultured in a way that completely doesn't represent eastern cultures. While, yes, elements are on the border, most of elven culture is western. And considering that things don't change much for the Avari, and that they're the origin of the different races of elves, then they themselves wouldn't be so different to the Sindar or Ñoldor and the offshoots of them.

No. And I'm not going to.
