The '''Dawnchant''' was a lost language on [[Roshar]] kept alive only by the writings and songs of the [[Vanrial]], an order of artists who sung in the Dawnchant without any knowledge of its meaning.{{ref|b|twok|c|60}} It was believed by them to be the language spoken by the [[Herald]]s. These songs were collected by [[Corvana]] in the [[Analectics]].

 

It was discovered by [[Navani]] that [[Dalinar]] spoke in the Dawnchant when he entered his trances during the [[highstorm]]s and she hoped to be able to translate it by questioning Dalinar as to what he said during his trances.{{ref|b|sa1|c|60}}
