Some of these words are from Tolkien's black speech, some I made up, and a few are combined black speech words I derived due to absence of an exact translation from blackspeech(Warlock, Warrior, Druid, Priest).

My suggestions:

Bye = Zug

Great = Bubhosh

Troll = Olar

Sword = Shapat

Bow = Lak

Arrow(s) = Lakir(s)

I also would suggest:

Dagger = Kurtil

Spear = Hashat

Hammer = Magath

Axe = Zapat

Staff = Shakop

Class------------------Singular--------------Plural

Rogue-----------------Mur'ishi-------------Mur'ishim

Warlock---------------Stri'brav------------Stri'bravim

Shaman---------------Vuduka-------------Vudukaz

Hunter----------------Gajutar-------------Gajutrim

Warrior----------------Stri'hu--------------Stri'hai

Druid------------------Dushuka------------Dushukaz

Priest------------------Mik'uk--------------Mik'ukrim

I'm not sure if Zug Zug means good bye in WC or not. I'll need to find the other orc words from WC.

We had bubhosh for great before, we may end up keeping it. To those of us who spent time in shadowclan, bubhosh feels like great and looks like great, but to others it does not. Otherwise we are trying to have the words a play on english words, so people can understand them easier.

Shapat might work for sword, haven't heard of anything better yet. Lak isn't to bad for bow, we had sling'r, but it reminded me to much of a sling. The other words we have for weapons are fine, they portray what they do more then what they are. Easier to understand that when someone speaks of their bash'r, we know what they are talking about right away, as well as those of non-oricsh blood. Same with classes.

Also, we need a new warcry. Forgot to post that. HOOOOWAAAHH is shadowclan, while WARRRRRGGGHH tends to be mostly blagtoof. And no, we are not going to howl AaAaaaRrrRrRRrRoOooOooOoo >:]

Yeah, you're right. Sorry I just tend to get into the roleplay. I have a fascination with orcs. You guys will have loads of fun with my character. He tends to speak black speech every now and then. ???

He's going to be somewhat of a continuation of my Shadowclan orc. He has the same name, and "flashbacks" of what seems to be a previous life.
