- "Admiral, if they're from the Unknown Regions, they might understand the Chiss language."
"Doubtful." - ―Karyn Faro and Thrawn
Cheunh was the main language spoken by the Chiss.[1] The title of ozyly-esehembo was a Cheunh word for Force-sensitive Chiss navigators, which translated to Galactic Basic Standard as "sky-walker." Grand Admiral Thrawn, a Chiss, recounted his confusion when meeting Anakin Skywalker during the Clone Wars after he had asked Darth Vader to use the Force to navigate the Chimaera.[3]
Behind the scenes[]
Cheunh was first seen in the novel Thrawn: Alliances by Timothy Zahn.[3] It is later seen more prominently in the Thrawn Ascendancy trilogy which follows the Chiss Ascendancy.[4]
