Summary
Details

"Whether doing business with the Hutts or trying to get a decent haircut on Coruscant, the Galactic Phrase Book & Travel Guide is an invaluable tool for galactic travelers. Vividly illustrated by Sergio Aragones, this handy volume covers the basics, including

.

Greetings-H'chu apenkee, o'grandio lust- ""Greetings, glorious host"" in Huttese. It doesn't hurt you to be nice, and it might hurt you not to.

. Travel arrangements-Zat x'ratch keezo bompaz ha sheep- in Bocce, ""That scratch was there when I rented the ship.""

.

Asking directions-Chi ita lungee- ""I am lost,"" in Ewokese. Don't be afraid to seek help in the forest.

. Dining-Dis foosa isa berry good- ""this food is good."" It's always best to compliment your Gungan hosts.

. Bargaining for your life-Huwaa muaa mumwa- ""Can I buy you a drink."" in Wookiee-speak. Try it. It just might work.

A must have when traveling without your protocol droid!

Bonus!-An exclusive ""Behind the Sounds"" look at making of the Star Wars movies from Academy Award-winning Sound Editor Ben Burtt. Discover the secrets behind the roar of Chewbacca, the chatter of the cantina crowd, and R2-D2's unique eloquence."
