Klatooinian (language)

Klatooinian language was once the native language of the Klatooinians, the native people of Klatooine. By the latter days of the Galactic Republic, it was a dead language.

After the beginning of Klatooinian servitude to Hutts circa 25,100 BBY, the Klatooinian language was increasingly forgotten. In a few years, Klatooinians began to speak only Huttese, and most of them were illiterate. The Klatooinian language only existed in ancient texts, and was known mostly by (non-Klatooinian) scholars. This was an anomaly in Klatooinian culture, which was otherwise highly concerned with preserving its ancient traditions.
