Can White Walkers talk?












3














White Walkers seem intelligent and they even produce sound. Can they talk? How do they communicate with each other?



Talking about education, the Night King was once a human who can teach other White Walkers, if he still retains the skill.



Can White Walkers talk? What do the books say?

          Yes White Walkers can talk. In the show the language they use is called Skroth. It makes a sound like crackling ice similar to the books and we also see a White Walker communicate to the wights and other White Walkers when it screams near Sam.








          However, the language is not named in the books as far as I know but we do get the following information indicating they may yes they do talk.




          The Other said something in a language that Will did not know; his voice was like the cracking of ice on a winter lake, and the words were mocking.
