Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Thissss iss a Ssssself Demonssssstrating Article. Ssnaketalk iss the tendenccy of any ssnake or ssnake-like creature/persson to acccent any ssibilant ssound in a word, pressumably to imitate a ssnake hisssing. Ssometimess appliess sssso broadly it affectsss any reptilian creature - even when it doessn't make any sssenssssse. Asss much asss a talking reptile can make sssenssssse anyway, even if every other Talking Animal isss perfectly capable of talking. You sssee, reptilesss do communicate with one another, but it tendss to be largely visssual; dissssplaying boldly colored frillsss or cresstss and sssuch. Sseveral sspeciessss don't even have vocal cordss and have rather poor sssenssess of hearing. It'sss really only sssenssible to the writersss, sssinccce they think sssscaly creaturess are grosssss, ssso they mussst ssssound sssscary. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Black Sssspeech takess thiss a ssstep further, and consssstructs a whole language out of it, albeit far lesssss pleasssing to the ear. Often employed by Ssssnake People and Lissard Folk. And sssssometimesssss even Sssssmug Sssssnakesssss. Ssssee alsso Fang Thpeak, Vampire Vordsss, and Trrrilling Rrrsss. If you are wondering, there are five letter "essssessss" in thissss article'ssss title. Ssssubtrope of Animal Sssspeciessss Accent. |

Unlike most of the nonhuman sentient races in the Heralds of Valdemar series, which speak using telepathy, the gryphons can speak aloud, but are prone to both sssnaketalk and Trrrilling Rrrs. A few gryphon characters can overcome these habits with practice, but still tend to slip back into hissing when stressed. | |

Used believably in the Destroyermen series. Though they have their own language, the Grik use written and spoken English as the “scientific tongue,” thanks to the capture of a British East India Company ship that came to the altEarth in the 1700s. Other Grik-like peoples, such as the Tagranesi and Khonashi tribes who ally with the Lemurians and the US Navy, also start learning English. However, as they are all reptiles descended from Cretaceous-Period raptors, they are unable to pronounce any letter whose sound requires lips, and sometimes try to substitute with “F” or “S”. Other times, they will use grammatically-incorrect-but-pronounceable word substitutions, like “I” for “me” or “us” for “we.” | |

Redwall: Asmodeus, The Dragon from Redwall (or what looks like a literal dragon if you're a mouse), appears to punctuate everything with "Asmodeuss." (He also seems to vocalize his name while asleep, instead of snoring.) In fact, all snakes talk like this and even have names with lots of sibilants (Baliss, Harssacss, Sicariss...). The monitor lizardzzz from Pearls of Lutra use "z" instead. |

Plenty of Disney examples: Kaa, in The Jungle Book, particularly during the song "Trust in Me". Sir Hiss, in Robin Hood. Jafar in giant cobra form at the end of Aladdin. The eels Flotsam and Jetsam from The Little Mermaid talk like this. Eels aren't snakes, but they look very snakelike. Scar in The Lion King talks like this at times. Yes, despite being a lion. Joanna from The Rescuers Down Under, although she is actually a lizard, but a reptile nonetheless. |

The Hobbit: Smaug really loves stressing his sibilants; most prominently as he assures Bilbo that "I will not part with a sssingle coin", complete with a serpentine tongue-flick. Even before that: "Hmmm...there is ssssomething about you." In the third film, Thorin starts picking it up as his greed and Gold Fever from Smaug's treasure overwhelm him. | |

The X-Universe has the local reptiloid race, the Teladi, talk like this. It's especially annoying since they are a race made exclusively of profiteering maniacs, and so have a tendency to put words like "profitssss" and "creditssss" where other races wouldn't. They will even hiss at the player if they're pissed off. | |

World of Warcraft: Nagas do this sometimes, and one mob is actually called Ssslith. That's not a spelling mistake: his name contains three esses. The Priests of Hakkar are infamous for this. High Priest Venoxis in Zul'Gurub talks entirely like this, even when in his normal, Troll form. The High Prophet of Sseratus, named Slad'ran, in Gundrak. His room is a snake pit. Gul'dan in World of Warcraft: Warlords of Draenor and Legion has a snake like voice, he employs it when he wants to be more taunting and sadistic than usual. |

In Wind and Sparks by Alexey Pehov in the English translation by Elinor Huntington the toad people Blazogs tend to "quack", replacing guttural sounds with "kv".

Star Trek: Notably ssssssubverted by the Gorn in Star Trek: The Original Series and Star Trek: Enterprise where the reptilian species has a notably deep and gravely voice, but whose speech patterns do not have an emphasized sibilance, although their breathing is somewhat sibilant. Cardassian characters can get a little sibilant, especially if they're angry or keyed up, but it's unknown whether this is biological or more like an accent. |

In the Larklight trilogy, Ssilissa, a "blue lizard creature," was originally named Millicent and mispronounced it consistently enough as a child that eventually everyone else gave up and just called her Ssilissa. That's right, not Millicent, not even Sillisa, but Ssilissa. She's got everyone else hissing, too. Then in the third book, the rest of her species (the Snilth) turn up and we get names such as Zssthss, Alor, Ssoozzs and Thss. Lampshaded when the narrator comments that this sounds more like a gas leak than a name. | |

The Electroids from Mixels speak this way in a borderline example. They're electricity-based in nature, and their bodies naturally shock and convulse with electricity when they say s- and z- sounds, making them elongate them. They don't do it all the time, but it's noticeable when they do. It also should be noted that Teslo has a lizard-like design to him and Zaptor's name is a portmanteau of "zap" and "raptor". | |

Journey to Chaos: Oito, the lizard demon, speaks like this, much to Eric's amazement. A royal knight commander, who is also a lizard demon, has this affect. It must be hard to give orders. |

In The Elder Scrolls series, Argonians, particularly males, have elements of this when they speak. The Daggerfall in-game book series King Edward even describes the Argonian healer of the story as "a strange looking lizard-like man, who spoke with such a hissing accent that Edward couldn't understand him at all" ("I cannn fixxxx thissss, it'ssss cleeean"). Over the course of the series, this has become more and more Downplayed, however. By Oblivion, Argonians speak at most with a long, raspy, reptilian drawl, but tone down the hissing. Skyrim removes it almost entirely with the exception of a hissing taunt during combat. | |

DC Comics snake cult/terrorist organization Kobra requires this as a stage of initiation for all their converts. This is noted in Identity Crisis, when Green Arrow takes Wonder Woman to interrogate Slipknot, who was suspected of attempting to kill Jean Loring, and who became a Kobra convert in prison. He starts talking like this, and Green Arrow tells him to drop the "fake hiss". | |

Doctor Who: The reptilian Ice Warriors, but only in Earth's atmosphere; they don't hiss in their own. Zephon from "The Daleks' Master Plan" has a distinctly sibilant hiss when he speaks, as does Celation. "The Unicorn and the Wasp": The villain, a large alien wasp capable of taking human form, uses Wazzzzptalk when about to change into his insectoid form. Colony Sarff from "The Magician's Apprentice" is a colony of snakes. His hissing is more pronounsssed by his breathlesss-ssounding sspeech. |

On Chop Socky Chooks, the villain Kobra gains a snake-like way of speaking after being bitten by a snake. And in one episode, he brainwashes the people of Wasabi World by hypnotism. They all repeat what he said, complete with lisp, until he tells them to stop it. | |

DSBT InsaniT: Snakes speech is persistently stacked with 'S'es as a result of having this speech pattern. This gets severely downplayed as of episode 7 due to how it would result in what is essentially an Overly Long Gag whenever he talked. | |

Naga speak this way in Orconomics. Gorm meets a Naga barkeep named Angusss. When he speaks his name, the barkeep corrects him that it's pronounced "Anguss", adding that "the middle 's' is silent." As expected, he tends to hiss his "s"'s. | |
