Languages
The primary language of the galaxy is Galactic Basic. However, with the myriad of species and cultures in our operational area, more than a solid grasp of the language of the holonets is required to secure the Empire.

Baragwinian
this was the primary language of the Baragwin people, noted for its usefulness in business and trade.
Binary this was a simple, Imperial language used during the height of the Galactic Civil War.
Bocce a galactic language used on many worlds, Bocce was developed by the Baobab merchant family to serve as the one language which could be used among all the alien and human beings who worked for the shipping corporation. This allowed mixed-species crews to communicate, no matter what race they were from. Over the years Bocce was accepted as a basic form of communications for many settlers and travelers, because of its ease of use.
Bothan this was the native, spoken language of the Bothan race.
Caluulan this was the native language spoken on the planet Caluula, a derivative of the Basic language.
Charm Signing developed on the planet Coruscant, charm signing is a communication method that uses hand signals. Confined to the wealthier families and, later, those with close ties to the Imperial bureaucracy, charm singing involved a series of hand motions to convey a message. In the aftermath of the Battle of Endor, charm signing was used almost exclusively by supporters of the New Order. Many of the New Republic's supporters feared that it would simply become another way for beings to miscommunicate with each other.
Cheunh this was the dense, grammatically difficult language of the Chiss. Written forms of Cheunh did not have defined alphabet, using individual ideograms to represent concepts and combinations of images to represent complex ideas. It was generall believed that other races could learn the Cheunh language, but very few races could pronounce it correctly.
