Shyriiwook

"...it's rough on my throat, I lost my voice for a day after bugging Zeb by serenading him in Shyriiwook."

- Sabine Wren

Shyriiwook was a language of the Wookiees, others of which included Thykarann and Xaczik. The language consisted of growling and howls, and thus was difficult for anyone not a Wookiee to speak or learn and was also rough on their throat. It had over 150 words for wood.

Sabine Wren was capable of speaking of smattering of Shyriiwook, but lost her voice after annoying Garazeb Orrelios for a day, serenading him in Shyriiwook.

Han Solo was capable of understanding at least some of it, as he usually understood what Chewbacca was saying. Major Kalonia, who served as a physician in the Resistance, was fluent in Shyriiwook. Rey was able to learn Shyriiwook due to her interaction with offworlders on Jakku.
