I was wondering what are the words that the dwarves are yelling before battle in the movie The Battle of Five Armies. Can anyone tell me what those words are?

"Yanâd Durinul" - Sons of Durin

from David Salo's [YND] birth/son; as in "ênâd" (birth) - Ereb. Khuzdul: "Yand" (son), "Yanâd" (sons).

From this video, see 0.19;

It's a battlecry, similar to the one Gimli says:

'Baruk Khazad! Khazad ai-menu!'

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers - Book III, Chapter VII, Helm's Deep

    I would just like to add that this is "Neo-Khuzdul" and therefore completely non-canon.
