Language that [[Orks]] speak reflects their nature, being a crude and unsubtle one, but possessing more insults and war terms than any other. It is known to consist of many dialects, that wary between different [[Clans]] and worlds.{{Fn|4}} These dialects are changing as Orks migrate around the galaxy, contacting other species and adopting words from these languages. Orks often loot things they like from other races and particularly useful words and phases are no exception.{{Fn|1}} Because of it, Ork language includes many loan words, including the ones taken from [[Low Gothic]], however, due to the their physiology Orks are unable to pronounce some sounds and most of those get heavily changed.{{Fn|5}} It is speculated that at same point in history all Orks spoke the same form of the language, the one Imperial scholars call ''Old High Orkish''.{{Fn|1}} Ork language can be learned by humans to some extent, the most famous example being [[Sebastian Yarrick]].{{Cite This}} The Ork language uses a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logogram logographic system] and is written in the form of glyphic script. Its core consists of glyphs that indicate Clan, Warband, common Ork concepts and elements of Ork names. These are augmented by phonetic runes that can be used to write most Ork words and words from other languages.{{Fn|2}}{{Fn|3}} The resulting script is mainly used to indicate ownership, signify tribal affilation, record battle honours and other such tasks. They are not often used to write down history texts or battle manuals. Instead, Orks have a very strong oral tradition with myths and legends passed from Ork to Ork. Only Meks with their jargon write and share useful bits of knowledge.{{Fn|1}} ===Mek Jargon===In addition to common Ork tongues, ork [[Mekboy]]s use a more sophisticated and complex jargon of their own. It includes many scientific and technical terms devised to fit their current projects. When Meks arrange together for some large construction project, it is vitally important for them to understand each other when communicating technical ideas. This is especially true when Meks arrange from far-flung places to work together, each only able to understand only his own dialect. The technical tongues of the Mekboys are written in special scripts, that can't be understood by anyone except other Meks. This way information is transfered from one Mek to another.{{Fn|1}}

Main [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexeme lexeme] of Ork language is a root word, represented in written form either by a glyph or a number of phonetic runes. These are common Ork words and name elements. Naturally, there are myriads of them, varying between worlds, clans and different regions of Ork space, but some of them, listed lower, are universally understood and are included in almost any dialect of Ork language. These basic root words represect represent all concepts, fundamental to the Orkish way of life. As such they are known among all Orks and have probably remained unchanged from the dawn of the Ork race.{{Fn|1}}

These root words are used to create names of units, tribes, individuals, places or battles and to indicate ownership and such. Most of them have multiple meanings, that depends on the context. In fact, Orks don't recognise the strict limitations on the meanings of words and described glyphs may have different meanings not listed here. They often string words togrther together in imaginative compounds to express what they mean, resulting in a very approximate manner. Because of it, Ork language is not known for its clarity as Orks do not demand precision from it and are quite happy to follow the gist of what is being said.{{Fn|1}}
