'''Zandali''', also known as "Troll" is the native language of the [[troll]]s. Trolls of all types speak Zandali, which is descended from their ancestral tongue, though some have descended so far into barbarism that they have forgotten this [[language]], instead speaking [[Low Common]].{{Cite|LoM|34}} Troll language is largely syllabic.{{Cite|WoWRPG|50}}

'''Zones''' are areas of the [[map]] with designated themes, mobs, and scenery. These areas have borders much like a state or country, and though invisible, they define areas.<ref>{{ref book |author= BradyGames |authorlink= BradyGames |coauthors= [[Michael Lummis]] |title = [[World of Warcraft Official Strategy Guide]] |isbn= 978-0-7440-0405-2 and 978-0-7440-0503-5 |pages=9}}</ref> They may contain [[subzone]]s, [[City|cities]], [[town]]s, [[village]]s, or [[instance]]s. For example, the zone of [[Dun Morogh]] contains the subzone of [[Coldridge Valley]], the city [[Ironforge]], the town [[Kharanos]], and the instance [[Gnomeregan]].

In World of Warcraft the language known as ''Troll'' and is the secondary [[language]] spoken by the [[Darkspear]] trolls of the horde.{{Cite|WoW|}}

''[[World of Warcraft]]'' currently consists of four [[continent]]s, [[Eastern Kingdoms]], [[Kalimdor]], [[Northrend]], and [[Outland]], which are sometimes divided into other sections which are also called [[continents]], and further divided into smaller sections in-game known as '''zones'''.<ref>{{ref book |author= BradyGames |authorlink= BradyGames |coauthors= [[Michael Lummis]] |title = [[World of Warcraft Official Strategy Guide]] |isbn= 978-0-7440-0405-2 and 978-0-7440-0503-5 |pages=212}}</ref>

It is named for the [[Zandalar Tribe]], or the isle of [[Zandalar]], which is the ancestral home of the trolls.
  
   
  +
In lore and the [http://www.worldofwarcraft.com official web site], a zone is usually referred to as a "region" (however, the community has basically forced Blizzard to start using zone instead). Furthermore, lore regions and in-game zones do not always match up (what may be a region in lore may be reduced to a subzone in-game, or some subregions may become their own zones).
−
==Zandali Primer (official translations)==
  
−
Here are a few common Zandali phrases and words, for which the translations have been officially confirmed by Blizzard, or have actual real world translations:
  
−
*"[[Temple of Atal'hakkar|Atal'Hakkar]]" = "Devoted to Hakkar" or "In Honor of Hakkar".{{cite|DF|127}}
  
−
*"[[Atal'ai]]" = "Devoted Ones"{{Cite|DF|127}}
  
−
*"'jin" = suffix, refers to the tribal chief or elder.{{Cite|WoWRPG|50}}
  
−
*"fon" = suffix, means "loner": someone who has deliberately absented himself from troll society and its obligations and is little better than a pariah.{{Cite|LoM|171}}
  
−
*"[[Juju]]"<ref>{{cite|MM&M|8}}</ref> = 1. a fetish, charm or amulet used by some tribes. 2. the power associated with a juju[http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary]
  
−
*"Kaz'kah" = "death totem".{{Cite|S&L|10}}
  
−
*"Mojo" = a magic spell, hex, or charm; broadly : magical power (possibly of Fulani origin)[http://www.m-w.com/dictionary/mojo]
  
−
*"Mon"<ref>{{cite|MM&M|}}</ref> = "man"[http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/mon] (may represent a form of [[Low Common]], rather than Zandali)
  
−
*"Voodoo" = a person who deals in spells and necromancy b (1): a sorcerer's spell : hex (2): a hexed object : charm, (a religion derived from Yoruba polytheism which involves ancestor worship and is mostly practised in Haiti.)[http://www.m-w.com/dictionary/voodoo]
  
−
*"Zufli" = "baby witch", corruption of the voodoo master prefix, "zul". It is a derogatory term for female witch doctors, but some females have taken on the title as a mark of pride.{{Cite|HPG|93}}
  
−
*"[[Zul']]" = prefix, describes a voodoo master{{Cite|WoWRPG|50}}
  
−
*"[[Zul'jin]]" = title/name, used for a "great tribal witch doctor"(rough translation).{{Cite|WoWRPG|50}}
  
−
===Troll Names===
  
−
====Jungle troll names====
  
−
[[Jungle troll]] youth do not receive public names until they have earned a name in battle. Until then, they are referred to by generic diminutives.{{cite|MoM|102}} Jungle troll names look simple but are surprisingly complex. Their language is largely syllabic, and various syllables can be added to the beginning or end of a troll's name to denote status and ability. Troll given names are usually one syllable, to facilitate the additions of these titles. Some trolls drop their given names altogether and are known purely by their titles.
  
−
*Male Names: Vol, Ros, Mig, Gal.
  
−
*Female Names: Shi, Mith, Hai, So.
  
−
*Family Names: Trolls do not have family names, though they occasionally use their tribe's name in its place.
 
−
{{Cite|WoWRPG|50}}
  
   
  +
For a graphical list, see [[Zones by level]].
−
====Forest troll names====
  
−
[[Forest troll]]s follow the same naming conventions as jungle trolls, though some of the suffixes and prefixes differ.
  
−
*Male Names: Doth, Mag, Ran, Vis.
  
−
*Female Names: Lith, Arn, Din, Mak.
  
−
*Family Names: Like jungle trolls, forest trolls have no family names.

Instance Maps Ideas

Zones are areas of the map with designated themes, mobs, and scenery. These areas have borders much like a state or country, and though invisible, they define areas.[1] They may contain subzones, cities, towns, villages, or instances. For example, the zone of Dun Morogh contains the subzone of Coldridge Valley, the city Ironforge, the town Kharanos, and the instance Gnomeregan.

World of Warcraft currently consists of four continents, Eastern Kingdoms, Kalimdor, Northrend, and Outland, which are sometimes divided into other sections which are also called continents, and further divided into smaller sections in-game known as zones.[2]

In lore and the official web site, a zone is usually referred to as a "region" (however, the community has basically forced Blizzard to start using zone instead). Furthermore, lore regions and in-game zones do not always match up (what may be a region in lore may be reduced to a subzone in-game, or some subregions may become their own zones).

For a graphical list, see Zones by level.
