Goblins possess a language, and the most common dialect is considered low verse, meant for warriors and battlefields.<ref name=":0" /> It's become the most common Goblin dialect due to the need to survive, and because young goblins don't have the time to learn the full Goblin vocabulary. It's described as rough and unpleasant to speak; while used in cases of necessity, the Goblin tongue is usually eschewed by Goblins in favor of gesturing and pointing. Most Goblins speak in a splintered form while using body language and context to fill in the gaps. Goblin sounds including grunting, chortling and loud ''eigk-ing'' sounds.
