the Feds use vast anounts of technobabble, the Klingons talk of glorious battle and whether or not it would be honorablr, but what do Jem Hadar sound like when they are talking?

Well, a Jem'Hader normally do not question their leaders, because they know they can easily be replaced. The convos they showed on DS9 was mostly just the leader of the group barking orders to it's men.

Do they grunt in reply, say yes sir, do a dance when responding to an order, or just act as if they are mute?

IIRC a combo between option (a) & (d). Mostly (d) for the grunts, and (a) for interaction between Jem Hadar with rank.

So, it would go something like this:

Vorta:GO check on the Power couplinks

JemHadar:ugh

Vorta:You, go fix the warp core

Jem Hadar:mah

VOrta:And you, clean the garbage compactor

(Jem Hadar just walk away to do his job)



That is going to be one very boring scene

Well, it makes the Jem'Hadar possibly the most brilliant conversationalists out of the races you mentioned.

True, but throw in a few ideological slogans ("I serve the Founders.") and that's basically all the Jem Hadar ever say other than when they're playing games to increase their own status in the eyes of their Vorta.

plying games?

In the metaphorical sense. Mild political machinations and some degree of backstabbing although not much.

"ME stronger you weak"
"NO ME STRONGER YOU WEAK!"
*The two then fight to the death*

I doubt they talk very much.
