 The Grey Havens - Middle-earth: Orkish and the Black Speech - base language for base purposes
The only thing that seems to be true of all Orkish languages at all times is that they were "hideous and foul and utterly unlike the languages of the Q[u]endi" (LR:178).
The diversity and mutability of the Orkish tongues was of course an obstacle for a Dark Power using Orcs as its storm-troopers.
This suggests that the Black Speech does not mark the distinction between definite and indefinite nouns (which is not in itself a defect, as this is also the case in major languages like Russian and Chinese).

Low Orkish is a model language that I, Merle D. Zimmermann, created on June 18, 1999 for the purposes of adding flavour to one of my online fantasy-rpg personas and to annoy the other players.

Version 3 of Orkish (it wasn't Low, then) is still hanging around somewhere.

 Orkish
There being no objective standards for what constitutes a "harsh and hideous" sound or a "vile" word, these statements must be seen as subjective, reflecting a general prejudice against all things Orkish and everything proceeding from Sauron (though it can of course be argued that this prejudice was a thousand times deserved).
This suggests that the Black Speech does not mark the distinction between definite and indefinite nouns (which is not in itself a defect, since this is also the case in major languages like Russian and Chinese).
Taking into account the fact that we know very few Orkish words, this new fact that so many of them have possible parallels in Hurrian-Urartian seems more significant than it would be otherwise, and it may indicate that we face here something more than pure coincidence.

Later, they used the Highland to keep their foul Orkish terror-weapons, which were considered too dangerous and poisonous to keep in Orcland.
But because the Scotti were a polite and hospitable people, and had a horror of being thought unfriendly, and because the Orcs who controlled the Scotti schools and newsparchments said that it was wicked and evil to not want to share their country with Orcs, Dwarves, and Elves, the Scotti did nothing.
Whenever a hot-headed young Scotti spoke out against the Orkish plans, the older Scotti clucked their tongues and bade him to be quiet.

Knowing that the gravest Orkish insult translates as "I like the way your hair looks today"--offensive because the First Orkish Warlord in history had continual bad hair days and declared that anyone who commented on hair would be sliced, diced and served as dinner--could make a diplomatic exchange with the Orkish Court interesting indeed.
Windy Plains Orkish, due to trade-contact with the Elven Cities of the West, added a lot of loan words from Elvish, lost its cases and declensions (rather like the Romance languages lost most of Latin's inflections), and shifted toward Elvish-sounding [l] and [r] and other sounds that the Elves considered mellifluous.
Meanwhile, Black Crater Orkish added even more vowel phonemes, and after being conquered by the Black Trolls, many words were borrowed from Black Trollish that replaced terms from Old High Orkish in polite usage.
