[tmjva]

Dwarfs (note I'm using the proper plural here).

No, that's the third-person singular present indicative.

But seriously, I use Dwarves in fantasy settings and Dwarfs otherwise.

What I meant, (and I recall reading this in the early 1970's) is that Dwarves was a made up word invented by Tolkien.  It was not a proper English word at all.  I think I read that either somewhere in his LOTR appendices at the end of book 3 or in a commentary.

Of course language changes, and may have become acceptable term.  You may notice I also prefer the Oxford comma.
