Right, such as Tolkien's Black Speech: "Ash nazg durbatuluk, ash nazg grimbatul, ash nazg thrakatuluk ag burzum-ishi krimpatul." This is, of course, the inscription on the One Ring, and if you haven't memorized it...*sulks* "One ring to rule them all, one ring to find them, One ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them." I can just imagine a band of Orcs leaving Sauron to write poetry and smoke pipeweed in a commune somewhere (no offense to New Harmony). ~Wright
