This Sangheili to English dictionary serves as a guide to the Sangheili language that was crafted by Carl Buck and David J. Peterson for the Halo television show.
This page is intended as a compact guide for essential Sangheili and English vocabulary. Verbs are displayed only in their Bare, Reduplicative, and Bare Negative forms. To find a specific word, use your browser's find function, generally by pressing Ctrl-F.
Sangheili's co-creator, David J. Peterson, also provides transcripts and translations on his language wiki, as well as in a series of posts on Archive of Our Own, accessible here. Readers may also consult David Peterson's audio recordings here.
