Talz (language)

Talz was the native language of the Talz species from Alzoc III. It was mainly composed of buzzes and chirps, with variable pitch being an essential feature.^[2]

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.^[2]
