What languages can C-3PO not speak?

I can see 3PO speaking just like Darth Nihilus, that would be funny to see.

 

3PO would probably be tougher to fight than Nihilus.

 

as for the "ancient trade language of the Noghri", remember when the Noghri were a super secret race in the Thrawn trilogy that no one knew about?

As opposed to them randomly showing up in Republic era books and in the Clone Wars comics?

 

What about the Chiss language if they have one?

 

I know it's a bit off-topic, but I cannot resist . . .

For DarthUr and others who may be interested in the mechanics of "decoding" truly alien languages, I feel I must recommend Suzette Haden Elgin's supremely nifty Native Tongue novels. Herself a linguist, Ms. Elgin imagines a future Earth whose economy is wholly dependent upon trade with alien species . . . and thus is wholly dependent upon the Linguist clans, who allow their infants to be (essentially) raised by different alien species, as the only way to truly master a truly alien language is to be a native speaker (hence the title).

In addition to what I recall as a well-constructed political intrigue thriller plot, there is considerable serious and knowledgeable discussion of the power of language and how it molds culture--and even thought. I read these back in the 80s, when they were first released, and--as evidenced by my detailed recollection almost 25 years later--I thought they were entirely swell.

That's all.

 

That's pretty neat. I could see that actually happening.

 

Because yeah, a couple of Jedi and one clonetrooper clearly show that the entire galaxy knows about them.
