Dwarven (aka "Dwarvish"), is the primary [[Language|language]] of the [[Dwarves]]. Dwarves originally did not have a written language, instead passing their knowledge down through oral tradition. Humans taught dwarves how to write in [[Common]], which was much simpler than runes; and over the years, dwarves altered the language into their own design. Dwarven looks like a weird hybrid of titan glyphs and human letters.{{Cite|APG|140}}

{{Elinks-item|38661}}

Here are a few Dwarven phrases and words, for which the translations have been officially confirmed by Blizzard, or have real world translations;
 
−
*"[[Bael Modan]]" = "Red Mountain" or "the Red Mountain"{{Cite|WRPG|190}}{{Cite|A&HC|55}}
 
−
*"[http://www.wowwiki.com/images/8/8a/Haggis.ogg Haggis]" = A dish consisting of a mixture of the minced heart, lungs, and liver of a sheep or calf mixed with suet, onions, oatmeal, and seasonings and boiled in the stomach of the slaughtered animal.[http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/haggis](WC2)
 
−
*"[[Khadgar]]" = "Trust" {{cite|LG|36}}
 
−
*"[[Khaz Modan]]" = "Mountain or Mountains of Khaz", named after the [[titan]], [[Khaz'goroth]].{{Cite|S&L|119}}{{cite|APG|140}}
 
−
*"Loch" = a lake or partially landlocked or protected bay; a narrow arm of the sea.[http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/loch]
 
−
*"Lorn" = "Land", used in [[Lordaeron]]{{Cite|LoC|19}}

*"Thane" = "Mountain King" or "King"{{Cite|APG|56}}(WC3)

[[Category:World of Warcraft plate head items]]
−
*When attacked or approached by a member of the Horde, dwarf NPCs will be seen (by players either than dwarves) to say: "[Dwarvish]: Skuld". This translates to "Guards!", a warning call that summons allied guards to protect that particular NPC. Many dwarven NPCs also have other sayings in their native tongue. However, though not of particular importance, their meaning is lost to other non-dwarven players.

===Dwarven Names===
 
−
In dwarven culture, family names often indicate [[clan]] names as well. They are lesser clans within one of the three main dwarven cultures. Some family names are names of honor earned through some feat, which replace the family's true name. For example, [[Falstad Dragonreaver]]'s real name is Falstad Wildhammer. In which case the new name may be passed on to their descendants or not, depending on choice of the individual.{{Cite|APG|168}} Another example is members of "Thunderaxe", joined the Dark Iron clan during the War of the Three Hammers, taking on the name "Pikesplitter".{{Cite|LoC|131}}

==Selected Dwarven words (speculation)==
 
−
{{speculation}}
 
−
This is the list of words created by the in-game language parser for the "Dwarvish" language, and is listed as language number six (word range 204-314, 1236) in the Language text file.
 
−  
−
In the in-game translator, the language parser for Dwarvish shares similar words to Gnomish.
 
−  
−
Note: The language algorithm used by the in-game "translator" merely makes the words LOOK like Dwarven/Dwarvish. It does not actually use a specific dictionary. Therefore, translated in-game speech isn't true Dwarven.
