What do the people in Avatar speak?

The people in Avatar speak Na'vi, a fictional language created specifically for the film.

The Na'vi language is a complex and beautiful language with its own grammar, vocabulary, and sounds. It's designed to sound organic and alien, but also to be understandable and expressive.
