The Na'vi language was invented solely for the movie. :) You can actually learn the 'language' at link . It's pretty interesting... but difficult though. xD

That's very interesting. I would learn it but there would be no point in me learning it unless I was going to Pandora :D

The Na'vi language was created by Paul Frommer specifically for Avatar as per James Cameron's request. Although it is currently estimated at somewhere between 500-1000 words, it will most likely grow into a full language. Dr. Frommer himself said something to the extent that he hopes the language will become more popular than the Star Trek language Klingon. On a link from the site: learnnavi.org there is a petition to have Frommer continue to create and teach the language. The language is relatively simple to learn is you can understand linguistic terminology.

I think it's pretty outstanding that they've made up their own language for the movie and it sounds like a language that does really exist.
