I won't dawdle here, just post up something I whipped together regarding language, slang, lingo, jargon and the like that one would be likely to find in the Star Wars galaxy in the time-frame The Old Republic takes place in. Yes, it's for role-playing as well as as for anyone that might like to have a concentrated and abridged lexicon for use in TOR fiction works. I own nothing of this except my time compiling it.
That said, I should point out that with this, I've made the effort to attempt to filter out terms; from the overall Star Wars lexicon; that originate from very specific sources not available in this timeframe (ie: Empire/New Republic eras and forward) while giving careful consideration to some that are general enough to have either carried over or found recreation in later time-frames (such as the 10 and 100 percent below, having been sourced to ARCs from just before the Empire era. They're general enough that in 3500 years there's nothing saying they can't have been revived, retained, or are simply re-conceived of in the era that they're "sourced" from).
I've also included a few language dumps when I've had the material available. I do hope to fill in those few that may lay omitted when given time and source material. I've also tried to make rational interpretations regarding a few terms or phrases that; to my knowledge, had no specific English synonym. Comments are welcomed, as are suggestions and if I've made any egregious errors or lapses, do let me know.
Enjoy!
