Bajoran language

Memory Beta, the wiki for licensed Star Trek content.

The Bajoran language is the language spoken by the Bajoran people.

The language is used in prayer, wedding ceremonies, death ceremonies and other events. (DS9 episodes: "Battle Lines", "Shakaar", "Accession", "Call to Arms")

The Book of the Kosst Amojan was written in ancient Bajoran. To release the Pah-wraith from the Fire Caves, one had to chant the words in the language. (DS9 episode: "What You Leave Behind")

After Bajor joined the United Federation of Planets in 2376, Federation Standard was added beside the Bajoran language on signposting. (DS9 novel: Bajor: Fragments and Omens)

The Bajorans sometimes translate non-Bajoran names into their language. (DS9 novel: The 34th Rule)
