Actually Teya... perhaps you should cut khazalid some slack...
He is not at all human like you and I, as he speaks with a dwarf tounge
Khazalid is not just his name... Khazalid is also the ancient high language of the Dwarfs, one of many fictitious races of the Warhammer Fantasy setting.. This is what wikipedia has to say about the Khazalid language:
The Dwarfs are extremely proud of their tongue which they rarely speak in the company of other races and never teach to other creatures. To humans it is known as the ‘secret tongue of the Dwarfs’, sometimes overheard but never understood.
The Dwarf language includes very few words of obvious Elven or Human origin. By contrast there are many loan words from Khazalid in the tongues of Men, which suggests that Dwarfs must have taught some fundamental words to their taller allies. This is most obviously the case of words to do with traditional Dwarvish craftskills of smithying and masonry, skills which Dwarfs taught Men many centuries ago.
Of course, some Khazalid words are all too familiar to the enemies of the Dwarfs. Namely the oaths, fearsome battlecries and curses of the Dwarfs at war. Of these the most infamous is the cry of "Khazukan Kazakit-ha" or its common shortened form of "Khazuk! Khazuk! Khazuk"! which roughly translates as "Look out! The Dwarves are on the warpath".
The sound of Khazalid is entirely separate from human speech and even further from the melodious sounds of Elvish. It is guttural tongue; comparisons have been drawn to the rumbling of thunder. All Dwarves have deep, resonant voices and a tendency to speak more loudly than is strictly necessary.
Khazalid vowel sounds in particular are uncompromisingly precise and heavily accented. Consonants are often spat aggressively or gargelled at the back of the throat. Contrary to Men, whose dialect differs widely depending on Geographic location, the Dwarfs remain fairly consistent and there is no apparent difference in dialect across the Dwarven Empire.
Overall I have to say this was really a fun thread to read

... I especially liked the Chuck Norris clip... nicely done MB...
