Before the unification of the 4 main clans, Dom, Gorkil,Lur and Rax each clan had its own dialect with different variations of speech. Lurs said ork not orc, Doms spoke more refined while Raxs spoke in a more harsh manner. With the unification of the 4 great clans after the clan wars the dialects of each clan began to mix,words from the Lur clan like San, Blarg and Ug became standard amongst the orcs. But the oficial Blah only appeared when the Orcs Urara,Gragarn and Blawharag appeared. They were from a splinter clan of Gorkill wich spoke a completely sepparate language then the orcs. Thus the orcs created their own leanguage. So in summary the Blah is not the orc language but a the unification of many different dialects so all orcs can comunicate with each other. | Before the unification of the 4 main clans, Dom, Gorkil,Lur and Rax each clan had its own dialect with different variations of speech.

The Blah is the language of the Orcs. It is extremely difficult and usually impossible for Orcs to speak the common tongue spoken by most other citizens of Anthos, due to their tusks. The language can be a source of conflict between the Orcs and other races.
Origins
Before the unification of the 4 main clans, Dom, Gorkil,Lur and Rax each clan had its own dialect with different variations of speech. Lurs said ork not orc, Doms spoke more refined while Raxs spoke in a more harsh manner. With the unification of the 4 great clans after the clan wars the dialects of each clan began to mix,words from the Lur clan like San, Blarg and Ug became standard amongst the orcs. But the oficial Blah only appeared when the Orcs Urara,Gragarn and Blawharag appeared. They were from a splinter clan of Gorkill wich spoke a completely sepparate language then the orcs. Thus the orcs created their own leanguage. So in summary the Blah is not the orc language but a the unification of many different dialects so all orcs can comunicate with each other.
