"Can you speak Bocce?"
"Of course I can, sir. It's like a second language to me…"
"Yeah, all right. Shut up."
"Shutting up, sir."
Owen Lars and C-3PO[1]

Bocce was an interplanetary trade language comprising parts of multiple languages. It was created by the Baobab Merchant Fleet to allow communication between starcraft pilots, crews, and support personnel of various species. Though not commonly used by most, any experienced pilots or spacers would know a few Bocce phrases in case they came across those that did not speak the pilot's native language.
