It's definitely not in a language that Doug speaks, so it would have no effect.
Correct me if I'm wrong...you wrote of a time when Shadowallker became a half-vampire. Doug and Dwalinor worked on a means of restoring her for about a year. If they take as their start point, any magical texts written in the Middle ages or earlier, both of then would certainly have needed a working knowledge of Latin and Greek and possibly Celtic and Germanic at the minimum for the Western world. Ancient Egytian, Medean, Akkadian and Arabic for the Middle East. Ancient Japanese, Chinese and Korean for the Far East. Even if Dwalinor was the lead researcher for the project, Doug would had needed to become proficient in at least Latin and Greek to double check Dwalinor's work for constructing the spell.
Unless of course Doug erased all knowledge of ancient languages from his memory by some unknown means.
I knew there was a reason why it was bugging me and it took me about a week to figure it out.
