Talz language

From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.

(Redirected from Talzzi)
Muftak speaking Talzzi

Talz or Talzzi was the native language of the Talz species from Alzoc III. It was mainly formed by buzzes and chirps, with variable pitch being an essential feature.[1]

The Talz throat and proboscis structure made them unable to speak most languages of the galaxy except for their own. Most Talz were not fluent in Basic and had no understanding of it. As Talz language was not very well-known outside Alzoc III, protocol droids were usually not fluent in that language, although they could easily be programmed to translate it.[1]

[edit] Behind the scenes

Although the Talz have not even been discovered during the Clone Wars, Chancellor Palpatine understood the language of a Talz, Jedi Master Foul Moudama, in 19 BBY during the Battle of Coruscant. Moudama might be speaking a different language also composed by buzzes and chirps.
