Wort Wort Wort is the distinctive vocalization of the Sangheili (Elites) in the Halo video game franchise. First heard in 2001's Halo: Combat Evolved, the sound became an instant classic among gamers for its aggressive yet alien tone. Interestingly, the sound is actually a reversed and pitch-shifted audio clip of Sergeant Johnson shouting 'Go! Go! Go!'. Over the years, the phrase has evolved into a catch-all meme within the gaming community to represent the Elites' presence, confusion, or general excitement. It is commonly used in image macros featuring Elites in various humorous situations, often accompanied by other Halo-specific lingo like 'Blarg' or 'Honk'.
