No, but that would be a good idea! (Anyway, the Simpsonian exclamation would be transcribed as _dò_, that is, falling tone and short vowel (or a syllable ending in a glottal stop). The Orcish language name is a long, rising tone (hence the acute accent and the -h suffix for length). But you know, I have to ask -- anybody figure out the mechanics of Boomhauer's language from King of the Hill? ¡Él está viviendo, aleluya!
