Summary
“It appears to be in Mand’o,” he informed him.
Luke looked at Leia and grinned. “Wow, why didn’t I think of this sooner? Threepio, what does it mean?”
“Hmmmm?” he tilted his head over at Luke and then back at the paper. “Well, it seems to be nonsense, as far as a translation can be made. It reads Vizsla, which does not have a full Mando’a translation into basic. It is probably a nominative."
“A nominative?" Luke asked, scowling at how unclear that statement was. What did the droid mean by that? Here he was thinking he’d made a giant step toward figuring out his dreams, only to be stopped by threepio’s riddles.
“Indeed. A word that indicates that it is an existing subject, recognisable by the context. For some languages you can change any noun or verb into a nominative through conjugation, but Mando’a is a very simple language. It only has one gender and only uses verbs when required for completely contextual understanding. They don’t even have a verb to indicate a state of being.”
Luke rubbed his forehead. “I don’t need a grammar lesson, Threepio, I just need to know what it means.”
