Kaltxì! Welcome to Learn Na'vi

Na'vi is a constructed language spoken by the fictional indigenous race (the Na'vi) on Pandora in James Cameron's 2009 film Avatar. The language was created by Paul Frommer, a professor at USC with a doctorate in linguistics. This website exists to share this beautiful language with all who want to learn. To get you started, here are some popular resources created by LearnNavi.org members. More can be found in the downloads section!

Site Features

This informational website, like the Na'vi language itself, is still in its infancy. So far, we have a ~500 word Na'vi-to-English dictionary, the basics of speaking/pronouncing Na'vi, and an in-progress grammar and syntax section. Check back often for updates!

How to Use this Site

Firstly know that the language is still in development, and that some knowledge is still speculative. If you double-click any Na'vi word, you will be taken to the Vocabulary section for that word. A more complete dictionary is in the works.
