Of course, you're correct. Now the proof : Meliana was Mayar, and she was wife of the Thingol and Luthien was their daughter. Beren was married with Luthien, so their grand daughter, Elwinga, had the Mayar blood too. Elwinga was married with Earendil, son of Tuor and Idril. Son of Earendil and Elwinga, Elros had also Mayar blood. He and his brother Elrond had blood of Noldor(Idril), Teleri(Elwinga) , Edain tribe of Beor (Elwinga, because of Beren) and Edain tribe of Hador(Tuor), (so they had roots in every important tribe in Beleriand) and of course Mayar (Elwinga because of Meliana). Elros was first king of Numenor but the dynasty of princes of Andunie also came from him. Elendil was from this dynasty, so he came from Elros and his sons also, Isildur and Anarion. Aragorn was heir of Isildur. Now you understand :D It was simple, wasn't it?

Answer for your question: Valinor was the land where Valars, Mayars and Eldar lived and Valimar was city of the Valars.

Yes, No one (except Tolkien) really knows what color his hair is. I think it is blonde for a few reasons:
1. Thranduil's hair is blonde.
2. Elves are typically blonde
3. In Norse mythology the elves are blonde haired and Tolkien based his whole world on Norse myths.

Thern again there is a different between Moriquendi and Laiquendi and so on... And the Men... I guess the tribes are all related to each other.

Unless you ignored those;
in the movies, goblins are usually a bit smaller and hunched over most of the time,
and have big, yellow or greenish eyes with a small nose between their eyes. They mostly bear longer ears than Mordor orcs, and always
have a green skin. So there's definitely a difference. Other than that, they're also more agile and a better ability to climb things such as walls, pillars, or the mountains where they live.
By goblins, I mean those that are also known
as the Moria orcs.

Well, there are many races of goblins in the MOVIES, but Tolkien himself never really differenced orcs and goblins (or do you have a proof?) Most people believe Jackson's interpretation, because they can't find any difference, when they read the novels.

Tolkien never made them the same either.
I'm actually glad that Peter Jackson differed them from each other, it makes more sense
to me. They live up in the mountains and/or in caves, and they had done so for a long time
which would improve their climbing and agile abilities as they develop on further - and thus also those of their offsprings.
Their eyes should also be able to allow them to see better in the dark.
Did you ever see a Mordor orc climbing off a column with ease? Well, anyways, the differences in the movies make sense to me.

Well, there is a difference between the different orc tribes in their behavior and appearance and the main reason why they are created is always different, too. Orcs like Snaga, for example are different to orcs like Shagrat, and yes, the orcs in Moria are slightly different to others, but they are all still orcs. As a side note you said that Goblins are Moria orcs what underlines that Goblins are Orcs. Besides that I don't think that Tolkien ever discribed the orcs that were in Moria like monkeys who are climbing up and down the walls. Anyways the German translation is the same. Why should they give them the same translation, if they aren't the same creatures? And well, as I said before: The term goblin was used primarily in The Hobbit but also in The Lord of the Rings where it is used synonymously with "Orc". The different orc tribes are different to each other, yes, but "Goblin" is synonymously with "Orc". The biggest problem most people have is that Goblins are mostly mentioned in The Hobbit and The Fellowship of the Ring and perhaps also in The Two Towers, but then is never mentioned again (Neither in the Silmarillion nor in any other (later) tales) That is why many people think that there is a difference between Orcs and Goblins and there is no memorable quote that is a proof for the difference between G&O.

Who can speak the Black Speech, and why did Sauron fail, when he wanted it to be the common language of his slaves.
Sauron can, and he failed because he did not posess the Secret Fire.

yes, but who else except Sauron can speak this language? I know the last part of my question is not my best one, but there are two reasons why he failed. One has to do with his enemies, and the other one is very obviously.

I don't know why he failed, but I think it was because he was defeated and forgot it for a time. The only people who remembered it were the Nazgul. Later, many of the Orcs used it, as well as the Olog Hai.

The Olog-Hai, the Nazgul, and Morgoth and his servants are the only ones who can speak the pure form, and the Orcs speak a rougher form. BTW, did you know that when Tolkien created the Black Speech, he disliked the sounding of it so much that when a fan sent him a goblet with the Ring's inscription, he refused to drink out of it and only used it as an ashtray.

Gwaihir only carries him twice, from the burning forest to the mountains, and from the Black gate to Mount Doom, and back to Gondor. Landroval is the one who carries him from Isengard to Rohan, and from Carhadras to Lothlorien.

Gwaihir actually carried him from all of the places, and i should have said four not three. But i cant give you credit because the third one should be from Durins tower and the fourth is from the black gate

The Urulóki or "Fire-drakes" and some like "Cold-drake". Tolkien also discribed Scatha as a mighty "long-worm" of the Grey Mountains. So 2 or 3, but some were flightless and breathed fire and some breathed fire and could fly. This is a hard question.
