Orc Language

Below is a basic list of words commonly used by speakers of Shadowclan Orcish. Since Orc language is more interpretive than it is definite feel free to add your own brand of words or dialect. It has been known for some orcs to be confused by other Orcs’ brand of language. However it is impossible for orcs to grasp language the way other races have. So no matter how smart the orc is he will still speak it in a "broken" way at the very best.

Note that some Orcs speak other Orcish dialects such as Black Speech or Bloodrock. This is simply the language of the original Shadowclan Orcs, which is the easiest to learn, speak, and understand.
