Troll Darkscan presumably uses sounds outside the human range of hearing. IMG I've assumed this means that Troll hearing covers a far wider range of hearing than human, and therefore when Trolls speak Darktongue to one another at least some of what they say is inaudible to humans.

Troll hunters may be able to communicate entirely in such ranges. Trolls speaking to humans may be able to speak entirely in ranges a human can hear, but they'd have to learn what those were - perhaps there's a pidgin form.

IMG there are sorcery spells Infrahearing and Ultrahearing, and a special kind of tuning fork (quite hard to make, so rare) which warns you when a Troll is using Darkscan in your direction.
