Introduction

This page exists to archive all the Na'vi spoken words from the movie Avatar that the community has transcribed/translated, and also serve as a placeholder for those we haven't.

I will start by cataloguing all the scenes that Na'vi appears in, and putting the English subtitles (if any) - then there have been several efforts on the forums and I'll try and collate them here with links to the discussion.

Please bear with me as this page develops! Someone who is better at wiki than I am please feel free to fix the formatting, I'm trying to concentrate on the words.
