I know they calls humans 'umies and eldar are 'pointy ear'. But there are several other races in the game besides humans and eldar. What do they call other races, like Tau or Necrons?

I can't remember right now, but in the Dawn of War games the Orks had responses to each of the other races, if you own the game or can find clips on YouTube that may help

They'd probably still be "tin can 'umies" since they're in power armor. They didn't record new audio for Dawn of War when the new races were added to the game, so there's no reference there when Orks first spot them.

Humies= humans.
Elfies/Pointy ears/Panzies for Eldar and DE (they don't give a.damn the difference).
