A subtrope of Language Of Magic. Compare to IKnowYourTrueName (which was split from this). Contrast and compare MagicalIncantation. Compare to BrownNote, which includes sounds, images and larger written works that have powerful negative effects on the audience. Contrast SuperScream, where it's the act of speaking that causes the damage, and the words shouted are secondary if they're even intelligible. See also RitualMagic. HarshWordImpact is a metafictional version. Also compare SpeakOfTheDevil and TheScottishTrope. If the words themselves have no inherent power, but a character is still harmed by them, that's VerbalWeakness. If words provoke a fight by being hurtful in the ordinary way, that's a FisticuffProvokingComment. Works using this trope will often discuss ThePowerOfLanguage. RhymingWizardry often results in this.
