"Tell your uncle if he gets a translator, be sure it speaks Bocce."
―Beru Whitesun Lars[1]

Bocce was a language that saw some use on the suns-scorched planet of Tatooine. The adopted aunt of Luke Skywalker, Beru Whitesun Lars, once insisted on acquiring a translator droid that could speak that tongue. This prompted her husband Owen Lars to buy C-3PO, a protocol droid who affirmed that Bocce was "like a second language" to him.[1]
