I doubt they will do that as the dragon shouts are in draconic. A fully fleshed out real language with it's own rules and everything that has been really thought out like Elvish in lord of the rings.

True, which is why the aim was for easter egg more then anything :D

Sappereet you know the player char is able to preform Dragon shouts as well no?

could have some potential, it would be funny if there was an Easter Egg shout that said

"Have Fishy Stick" and the enemy would assailed by flying fish, but it would be the hardest one to find and would have to count as a 21 shout

I doubt it will really be as fleshed out as that, unless Bethesda employed actual linguists for the design of the game. I'm sure we'll get some infomation on the language, but for the purpose of the game, it doesn't really need to be a full language with its own grammar, an extensive vocabulary and all that stuff a real language would have. After all, Bethesda isn't creating it so that you can use Draconic to talk to your friends or what not, it's just there for the game, and for game purposes, it really just needs to sound like it could be an actual language when character's speak it, presumably, though, at least the words that are used for dragon shouts will be given meaning. Though that doesn't mean there can't be easter eggs hidden in there.

As has been said, though, all shouts are apparently three words, so any shout can only be three words in length.

The title makes it seem as if a Dragon shouts out Easter eggs.

At the end of the game, your shouts in Draconic will prove ineffective to stop Alduin. The World Eater will gaze down on you, exhaling fire, judging you and waiting to strike. Right as Alduin's about to strike a lone figure appears in front of you, clad in ancient Imperial Legion armor. His voice echoes across Nirn, shattering mountains and flooding entire continents. The ancient words make Alduin stop dead in his tracks, as he is cast back into the void and imprisoned once more. The three words spoken by the mysterious figure were not in Draconic, no. They are much more powerful. Two hundred years ago, they were spoken almost daily, shattering the gates of Oblivion in the process. Those three, simple words, whose power was lost throughout time, saved Tamriel.

Those three words were "STOP, CRIMINAL SCUM!"

Ha ha yes. The only thing I don't like is that as it is it's own language it means that eventually these boards are going to be filled with discussions in draconic lol.
