The Aurebesh alphabet is a significant feature in the "Star Wars" universe,
serving as the primary script for written communication across the franchise. Originally designed by
Joe Johnston for "Return of the Jedi," Aurebesh was expanded into a full alphabet by graphic
designer Philip Metschan for later films. This script corresponds to the English alphabet, enabling
straightforward transliterations and enhancing the visual authenticity of the series. Aurebesh adds
depth to the Star Wars setting, appearing on everything from starship consoles to signage, enriching
the immersive experience for fans.
Being a transposition cipher, where each English
letter is replaced by a corresponding Aurebesh symbol, it provides a layer of encryption to
written texts in the Star Wars universe.
Don't forget to put your volume up to listen to the encrypted message... read out loud by C-3PO
😂!
