Talk:Huttese/Legends

How are we sure that Greedo was speaking Huttese. Rodians speak Rodese don't they? -- Riffsyphon1024 01:19, 6 Jul 2005 (UTC)


 * I think that his lines were later ported ~in EU sources dubbed as Huttese, so that leaves the Rodese question out. MoffRebus 00:58, 28 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Vocabulary
Is it possible or legal to paste in this article all the known vocabulary? If yes, I can make an attempt personally MoffRebus 00:58, 28 Aug 2005 (UTC)

EP VI

 * The Huttese language was introduced in Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi. In the 1997 release of Episode IV, it was adapted for the newly recorded dialogue of Jabba the Hutt.

I think that Jabba's dialogue in VI is in the same language as Greedo's in IV (at least sounds like so), and except that, it was not newly recorded for the 1997 re-release. MoffRebus 12:46, 11 Jan 2006 (UTC)

Phrase
Not sure if what I just added is right. The phrase goes Sie batha ne beechee ta Jemba? 'Are you talking about me, the Great Jemba?' Would just the part Sie batha ne beechee? translate to 'Are you talking about me?' --Xwing328 00:44, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Humans
Isn't Huttese supposed to be very difficult for humans to speak properly? Red XIV 11:21, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Not that I'm aware of - Anakin Skywalker had no problem with it talking to Sebulba in Episode I. jSarek 11:26, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Ithorian and Shyriiwook are both difficult for humans. Cutch 18:03, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
 * In The Hutt Gambit, Han tells Jiliac that he can understand Huttese with no problem, but would mangle it if he tried to speak it. Red XIV 14:02, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, I know lots of folks who understand other languages but would mess them up if they tried to speak them... but there are other people who can speak them just fine. Cutch 17:25, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Audio?
Since Huttese is the most common alien language in the films, maybe someone can add an audio file of it for this artical. Dylax 20:32, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I think the article Jabba has a sample. And it's written 'article' :) MoffRebus 23:41, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
 * *smacks hand on forehead* cant believe I spelled that wrong. Well if no one minds I'll add the Jabba sample. Dylax 00:32, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Rodians
"Huttese was so influential that it also became the language of the Rodian race, rendering the Old Rodese obsolete." Truth? I know that Greedo spoke Huttese to Han in Mos Eisley (and, if we extend the implication to Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina, then he and his family spoke to each other in Huttese even before fleeing to a Hutt world), but did Rodians generally speak Huttese even on Rodia? -BaronGrackle 17:43, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
