I might spend the summer break learning to speak Na’vi

posted by John Lampard on Tuesday, 22 December, 2009 to the movies subset

Linguist Paul Frommer, creator of the fictional Na’vi language, spoken by the indigenous population of Pandora in Avatar, has written a primer for the language.

Na’vi has 20 consonants, 7 vowels, 4 diphthongs, and 2 syllabic “pseudovowels,” rr and ll.

For truly keen Na’vi devotees, Frommer has said he will be writing about the language in even more detail in due course.
