Kalimag

thumb|The runes on Frostmourne's pedestal. The runes on the right and left sides, past the Z-like runes, are identical to the middle rune. For the meaning, see Frostmourne's article.
thumb|Runes on an Ice Stone. Ice Stones are related to Ahune, which means that the runes may be kalimag - possibly Aquan or Auran as ice elementals are conglomerates of water and air.
Kalimag is the standard language spoken by all elementals.The Howling WindWarcraft: The Roleplaying Game, pg. 104Monster Guide, pg. ? Kalimag is an obscure tongue spoken only by a few scholars, for the native speakers (elementals) are rarely encountered in any sort of friendly capacity.World of Warcraft: The Roleplaying Game, pg. 131
Kalimag appears to have several dialects including Ignan (fire),Flamebender's Tome (quest) Aquan (water), Terran (earth), and Auran (air). One dialect exists for each elemental type living on the Elemental Plane. Elemental conglomerates are known to speak two or more of these dialects depending on elements they are made from.Shadows & Light, pg. 143
The Frostmourne Pedestal (seen in WCIII) had Kalimag written on the dais. Apparently, Muradin Bronzebeard can read Kalimag.Arthas: Rise of the Lich King, pg. 182
Draenor Furies seem to have their own version of Kalimag, exemplified by the Burning Blade clan using a runic language similar to the ignan dialect spoken by Azeroth's fire elementals to bend elemental power to their will.
==Sample Kalimag==
Note: Phrases originate from the in-game parser system (see below) but represent some of the only use of "Kalimag" in game.
*T ma toro nuk krast'ven fmerk --Wayward Fire Elemental, an objective of the quest Ice and Fire
*Kranu sto aer'rohgmar --Captured Water Spirit, during the quest Escape from Coilskar Cistern
*Ma reth bromo zoln kilagrin dra ma zoern tu ko fraht ka tadrom Ma krin drinor zaln dirnor Ma krin kan aasrugel korsul --Manifestation of Water
*Reth Reth Reth --Living Fire (NPC) and Sho'ravon, Greatstaff of Annihilation - Possibly means "Burn Burn Burn" given the nature of the elemental who says this. A member of the German localization team confirmed the equivalent in the German client, Dratir, means "Brennt" = "burn" (imperative plural)German: reply by Glizzelfara in the German localization forum (translation by Google)
*T ma suz'ahn reth T ma fiilrok tadrom dra T krin os nuk talsa reth krin shone sto toro tu ko zoln reth -- Minor Manifestation of Fire
The names of the runes of warding in Molten Core (Kress, Mohn, Blaz, Zeth, Mazj, Koro and Theri) may also be Kalimag (more specifically Ignan).
==Sample Words (speculation)==
This is the list of words created by the in-game language parser for the Kalimag language, and is listed as language number twelve (word range 1029-1150) in the Language text file. 
Note: The language algorithm used by the in-game "translator" merely makes the words look like "Kalimag". It does not actually translate words. Therefore, translated in-game speech isn't true "Kalimag".

===Word and phrase list (speculation)===
*Reth Reth Reth = May mean "Burn Burn Burn" or perhaps "Fire Fire Fire". However, this word also appears in text of Manifestation of Water - then again, both occurrences are within the game, created with the game's limited vocabulary. They likely mean different words, which are then 'translated' into the same 4-letter word.
