About Me

CLICK ON "VIDEOS" TO SEE OUR MEMBERS' VIDEOS....You know you all have tried it. This page is to document the world's efforts to sound like a wookiee. While the sounds made in the Star Wars films were created with a number of non-human noises, many people can do it! AND, even bad wookiee imitations are fun! To have your wookiee posted, email your video (video only- Myspace has its limitations) along with your name and location to [email protected]. OR post your video as a comment on this page. Acceptable formats: .avi, .asf, .dv, .wmv, .mov, .qt, .3g2, .3gp, .3gp2, .3gpp, .gsm, .mpg, .mpeg, .mp4, .m4v, .mp4v, .cmp, .divx, .xvid, .264, .rm, .rmvb, .flv, .mkv, .ogm

Add to My Profile | More Videos Shyriiwook (also called Wookiee Speak, or contracted as "Wookiespeak" in the Extended Universe, and video games) is the native language of the Wookiee race of hairy bipeds in the Star Wars universe. The language consists of animalistic roars and growls. Although it can be understood by members of other species, it is extremely difficult for most non-Wookiees to speak; presumably the word Shyriiwook itself, as well as other Wookiee words or names, are transliterations of the original Wookiee sounds into a form more easily pronounced by others. In one of the Star Wars episodes (Timothy Zahn's "Dark Force Rising"), Leia Organa Solo encounters a Wookiee with a speech impediment which conveniently renders his Shyriiwook pronunciation much easier to understand by Leia, who was learning the language at the time. No tongue or lip movement is required to speak Shyriiwook; the jaw is typically locked open, with sound emanating from the throat and back of the mouth. In the online game Star Wars Galaxies if the player chooses to be a Wookiee then they will speak in Shyriiwook, but many people can understand them, unlike in the Star Wars films.Another Wookiee language, Xaczik, is indigenous to Wartaki Island on Kashyyyk and several outlying coastal regions. While Shyriiwook remained the common language of Wookiee trade and travel, the much rarer Xaczik language became the secret language of the Wookiee underground when Imperial forces took over their planet.Examples Wyaaaaaa.
