| − | The language of the tauren is often harsh and low sounding, which is reflected in the names of their children. The last name of a tauren is usually a family name, handed down through the generations. If the tauren has performed some act that has made an impression on the elders of his tribe, however, he may choose to take on his own last name to commemorate that act. |

| − | == Algorithmic Taur-ahe words == |
||
| − | {{speculation}} |
||
| − | This is the list of words created by the in-game language parser for the Taurahe language, and is listed as language number three (word range 315-422) in the Language text file. The parser is used to mask both NPC and players that speak "Taurahe" when encountered by other races. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Note: The language algorithm used by the in-game "translator" merely makes the words ''look'' like Taur-ahe. It does not actually translate words. Therefore, translated in-game speech isn't true Taur-ahe. |
