Orc (language)
Orc is the primary language of the Orc race. The language is by its nature a harsh one, and can sound aggressive to non-speakers. The Orc language doesn't seem to contain any native words to describe numerals and Orcs have began to use Draconic numerals instead. Inside of Orc there are two different dialects: High Orc and Low Orc.
High Orc is spoken by the orcs of Hilal, and has evolved from orcs and none-orcs living and communicating together. It is in this dialect that most necromantic rituals are spoken.
Low Orc is a lot more raw and guttural and is often spoken by orcs in small isolated tribes or at homes against family members. Low orc is seen as vulgar and to speak it in a formal setting is a huge taboo in Orc society.
Writing System
Orc uses slightly less flowing form of the Draconic Alphabet. The two scripts have over the years slowly drafted apart from each other as Orcs needed a faster and more efficient way of recording their discoveries on their clay tablets.
Phonology
Orc words rely on their context, repetition and volume to add emphasis or meaning.
