Sy Bisti

Canon Legends version → Linked from 13 articles

Sy Bisti was a trade language used in the so-called Unknown Regions of the galaxy. Some Chiss, including Thrawn and Ar'alani, spoke it. Eli Vanto, whose parents occasionally did business in the Unknown Regions, was also proficient in Sy Bisti, which he regarded as a perfectly well-defined and eminently useful language. Commodore Karyn Faro could also speak Sy Bisti very well, though she was not fluent.

By the time of the Galactic Empire's reign, Sy Bisti was still used but only by lesser known people. Imperial translator droids could not understand it. Sy Bisti could be written by using Bogolan script.
