"Skyrim itself yields before the Thu'um, as you clear away fog and inclement weather." Sovngarde (all words learned together during Dragonslayer) "The valiant of Sovngarde hear your Voice, and journey beyond space and time to lend aid.’"

High Hrothgar (all words learned together during The Fallen) " Odahviing! Hear my Voice and come forth. Taught to you by Hermaeus Mora (during The Gardener of Men) Taught to you by Hermaeus Mora (during The Path of Knowledge) As it gains power, animals, people, and even dragons "must do your bidding." Your voice bends the very stones to your will. Your Thu'um enchants your nearby allies' weapons, allowing them to attack faster.’’Īll three words are found in Vahlok's Tomb "’The Thu'um reaches out to the Void, changing your form to one that cannot harm, or be harmed."

There are many shouts available in game, all having a separate function. Dragon souls can be acquired by defeating and killing a dragon and can also be used to upgrade previously known shouts (given that the shout is upgradable in the first place).

Shouts do not use your magicka but there is a cool down period after you use a shout.

It is believed that all humans were born with the ability to cast shouts and communicate with the dragons but gradually, as time passed, they lost the ability to do so. Shouts are the native language of the dragons.
