Languages of the Dune Universe Explained

Let's discuss some of the languages spoken by the different factions in the Dune universe including Galach, Chakobsa, Fremen, and a few others. The original Dune novel did make numerous references to the various languages spoken by the different cultures and peoples of the known universe. However, both the original 1984 David Lynch movie as well as the 2000 miniseries didn’t really deliver along these lines as English was pretty much the only language spoken on screen throughout both of these adaptations. Denis Villeneuve’s first Dune movie did a better job of allowing the audience to gain a better insight into some of these other spoken and written languages.
