"Koh-too-yah."
―Kel Dorian greetings — (audio) Listen (file info)[2]

Kel Dor, or Kel Dorian, was the native language of the Kel Dor species from Dorin. Most Kel Dor were fluent in both Kel Dor and Basic,[3] preferring to use Basic over their own language when away from their homeworld due to oxygen atmospheres making it more difficult to understand.[1] The language had a written form.[3]

It was easier to speak the language when in Dorin's atmosphere, though this did not prevent some non-Kel Dor from learning the language. Vylanthar Merric[4] and Commander Doel Scherp[5] both had learned the language, as well as the Jedi Bultar Swan[6] and Ahsoka Tano.[7]

Behind the scenes[]

Originally in "Rising Malevolence", Plo Koon was going to speak only in Kel Dor, but he ended up speaking Basic in it because the makers came to the conclusion watchers needed to be able to understand him due to the importance of the conversations with the clones under his command.[7]
