Titan (language)
From WoWWiki
| This article or section contains lore taken from the Warcraft RPG books.

The language of the Titans and giants is known as Titan. The written language is made up of glyphs (hieroglyphs)APG 140 and runes, and is understood only by deduction. Scholars are trying to restore the language by matching the modern Dwarven tongue with rare evidence at excavations of Titan ruins. Linguists tear their hair out trying to parse the inhumanoid grammar and circular references of Titan.WoWRPG 131 WPG 99, 104
