The Chiss Ascendancy used Taarja to communicate with the Paccosh during a Mission to the Rapacc system in about 19 BBY. Chiss caregiver Mitth'ali'astov did not like to speak Taarja, but was capable nevertheless. She described the sounds of the language as "angular." The Kilji species and the Grysk "Jixtus" used Taarja to communicate with the Chiss during several confrontations. The Taarja word for "instructions" also meant "suggestions" or "orders," and Qilori chose to use it to annoy Kilji General Crofyp while serving aboard the Kilji war cruiser Anvil.
