Bit of curiosity. Huttese sounds identical to Attic Greek (pre-New Testament, that is pre-Koine). When I took Greek in college, the professor had a tape of a researcher who was trying to figure out how the inflection and rhythm would have sounded (...) (24 years ago, 8-Aug-00, to lugnet.starwars)

You know, the first time I heard them, I didn't think it was an Asian accent. I don't think we should blame ol' George for our own racisms being ascribed to his movie. Still, I think he shoulda kept subtitles, just to cover his bum. ~Mark (24 years ago, 7-Aug-00, to lugnet.starwars)
