Bolg's dialogue at Gundabad
|

Really quick simple question for this one, but I'm referring to Bolg's marching orders in Battle of the Five Armies in Gundabad. He's post on top of a large rock as the bats swarm and there is a close up of Bolg who yells something that sounds like 'Gaharga! Hoooo!' I just wondered what was the exact translation of his dialogue here (I'm aware my spelling isn't exactly how his Black Speech will be written) but I know there might be some Tolkien language experts on here. It just always seemed weird to me that near enough all of Azog's and Bolg's other lines have subtitles apart from these.
There's also another Bolg command towards the end when Bolg's army shows up on Ravenhill, so if anyone knows that too, it would be appreciated. I'm aware it will be something like 'march!' or 'attack' or something like that.

Maybe there will be something about it in the appendices or commentary? I wouldn't hold my breath though. 
I think a safer bet is to check out the blog of David Salo (Tolkien language translator for the movies), where info about the different languages is occasionally posted. There's even an Orkish word-list, but I'm not sure if there's enough information provided to deduce the meaning of Bolg's line with certainty. I suppose you could try asking him directly as well, it does look like he answers comments on the blog sometimes.
