Vocabulator

"You sound strange. Is something wrong with your vocabulator?"

- BX-series droid commando

A vocabulator was a device found in certain higher-end models of droids that allowed them to speak. Astromech droids were not typically equipped with vocabulators and thus communicated in binary, which consisted of whistles and beeps strung together into sentences.
