This is now ruined for me .

In so many films it accompanies some sort of epic moment; now all I will ever think is great big wookies.

the very fact that you hear dovahkiin and not dragonborn means its not in english

Uhmm yeah this is for sure Dragon Language. Not English.

Lol, OP just got dealt with Dev style.
:toughninja:

Either OP is really trolly, or is -really- hard of hearing.

I'm sigging this!

Just because you can make yourself believe to hear logical english sentences doesn't mean it's actually english.

No.. it's if I Was Green I Would Die! Infidel!

If we were to hear the original choir without the ffects, I'm sure we'd see that it's in the dragon tongue. While to may sound like English, to me it is not. The "dragon words" are also maybe close to the English "sounding", like how Daedric alphabet looks a lot like the common alphabet.

Dragonborn Dragonborn
By his honor is sworn
To keep evil forever at bay
And the fiercest foes rout
When they hear triumph's shout
Dragonborn for your blessing we pray

And the scrolls have fortold
Of black wings in the cold
That when brothers wage war come unfurled
Alduin bane of kings
Ancient shadow unbound
With a hunger to swallow the world

If you listen to the trailer it does sound like your version but it also sounds like the official announcement that it is dragon.

Yeah. I can totally read Daedric font without even trying.
It's ridiculous, but awesome!

Had it been english it would have been dragon born dragonborn for the sake of skyrim as another said whom you ignoree. Also dovahkiin is not a name so it wouldn't be dovahkiin our king. And the high king of skyrim is dead.

Hasn't it sort of been proven by now that it is in Dragon tongue? Just considering that a developer even has explained it.

Gorbachev, tear down that thread!

I know! The human brain is a crazy thing. I still hear some of the old lyrics we "thought" we had before they released the real ones. That was pretty hilarious :lmao:

There is a psychological term for what the OP, and what we, are/were experiencing. But I cannot remember it.

it's not english. you just think it is because ofcourse it SOUNDS like it when you read that text at the same time.

It has been stated that its dragon tongue.

It was speculated that they were singing in English, and everyone was attempting to post their own interpretations on it, but they have stated many times that what they are singing is not English. A developer even said this somewhere long ago when it was a popular subject of discussion.

The Dragon language is what's right. Every time I listen to it, that's what I hear. There is no English there. End of story.

Watch while looking at the video text then the top rated comment.

This can probably close now. With the dev and the "Composing Skyrim's music" information, it is clearly not in English.
