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.[1] It was believed by them to be the language spoken by the Heralds. 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 highstorms.[1] She hoped to be able to translate it by questioning Dalinar as to what he said during his trances.

Jasnah recorded in her notebook on Urithiru that she wanted to find a way to translate the Dawnchant.[2]
