'''High Imperial''', known before the [[Final Ascension]] of Harmony as Eastern
{{quote
** If you must refer to the subject do so at '''the end'''.
* Use '''nicknames for people''', the language is based off moving the structure of a sentence into as many ''confusing manners'' as possible. In fact, using a '''nickname of a nickname''' is best. For example, Spook uses the nickname Nip to refer to Breeze, which is in itself a nickname.
* ''Adjectives'' come '''first''', Then ''verbs'', even if you form them as nouns
Reference Mistborn:The Final Empire for Lestibourne's parts.

== Trivia ==
* The dialect's grammatical rules are intentionally vague.{{wob ref|14727}}
* High Imperial was inspired by a person Brandon knew from the [[Timewasters Guide]] forums, who sometimes posted random gibberish that, upon close inspection, turned out to be rather poetic.{{wob ref|2378}}
