"Drem yol lok" is a formal greeting. It translates literally to "peace, fire, sky" and conveys the message: "I possess great power but refrain from attacking you."

"Ahnok" is a community invention to fill the human gap of an informal greeting. It has no meaningful root.

You can also greet someone canonically with their name and title, as in "Alduin, thuri!"
