Olys Corellisi

The original human language of Corellia, Olys Corellisi translates simply to 'Old Corellian'. It both contributed to and was influenced by Galactic Basic, with 'modern' Corellian emerging some four thousand years before the present time. Only scholars and a dedicated preservation effort have managed to keep knowledge of the original language alive on Corellia itself. Away from the homeworld, Corellian colonists from early in galactic history took their language with them and without the intermingling of other Core languages and Galactic Basic, their language remained pure. It was from these sources as well as written records that Corellian scholars were4 able to retrieve their ancient tongue. On some colony planets an evolved, but untainted, version of Olys Corellisi is spoken still.
