Elite Jaws
One suggestion for how the Elites speak may be that they use tiny muscles near the top of their throats to contract “lips” of skin inside, thereby enabling them to form words. These muscles would presumably be connected to the mandibles. They would chew their food by moving their lower mandibles underneath whatever they were eating and using their upper mandibles and jaw to chew.

Evidence to support the throat-muscle speaking theory is based on the fact that Spec Ops Commander Rtas 'Vadumee, who is missing his left mandibles, is still able to speak, suggesting that the Elites don’t form words with their mandibles. If you take a close look inside their mouths you can see quite a lot of skin inside, which could be how they form words.

The chewing theory is one idea of how Elites could chew.

Any comments or suggestions? This theory might be completely wrong. If anyone has any other theories, write them down, or edit this one.

When is the Elite naming method stated? --Dragonclaws 06:43, 2 September 2006 (UTC)


 * In the article, method is stated in the Culture section. I'm not sure where it is in real life, but I think it could be on one of the Halo websites, or the books -J.f
 * Yeah, I'm asking for a source of the info. --Dragonclaws 10:51, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
