The ancient Dragon Language is the language used by dragons. Text in the Dragon Language is found on walls in ancient dungeons and on burial grounds. The runes used for writing the language are described in the Dragon Alphabet article.
With sufficient understanding, certain words can be shouted to produce magical effects such as conjuring fire, cold, or wind; slowing time; or pushing an enemy away. This ability is known as the Thu'um.
Grammar
The language is structurally similar to English, with three exceptions: it has no equivalent to English's apostrophes, it tends to place prepositional phrases earlier in sentences, and verb tense is often ignored. To make a word plural, the last letter of the singular word is repeated and followed by an "e". For example, the plural form of "kel" (an Elder Scroll) is "kelle".
The singular possessive ("my", "your", "his", or "her") is formed by adding the letter "i" to the end of the word, except when the word ends in "ii", in which case an "l" is appended. The plural possessive ("our" or "their") is formed by adding the letter "u". To indicate a perfect verb form (as in "has silenced"), the letters "aan" are added to the end of the word.

Names
Dragon names are typically formed of three monosyllabic words that, as a whole, may be rendered as a Shout. Each dragon name is unique, and so dragons are able to use these Shouts to address each other across vast distances.
While dragon names are easily separated into their word components, translating them as a whole is another matter. The main complication arises from how the character Esbern, reads the name Odahviing (literally: Snow-Hunter-Wing), converting it into a coherent phrase; "Winged Snow-Hunter". No other examples exist to indicate how a dragon's name may be translated, but if other names were translated in the same way, it can be extrapolated that Boziikkodstrun would be "Bold Storm-Wielder" or that Sahloknir would be "Phantom Sky-Hunter".
Known dragon names include:
- Alduin: Destroyer-Devour-Master
- Boziikkodstrun: Boldly-Wield-Storm
- Dukaanfinsot: Dishonor-The-White
- Durnehviir: Curse-Never-Dying
- Mirmulnir: Allegiance-Strong-Hunt
- Nahagliiv: Fury-Burn-Wither
- Odahviing: Snow-Hunter-Wing
- Paarthurnax: Ambition-Overlord-Cruelty
- Sahloknir: Phantom-Sky-Hunt
- Viinturuth: Shine-Hammer-Rage
