The Vori language was unusual in that it used a high number of synonyms and metaphors for everyday words and had a military syntax. The language retained its distinctive structure even when rendered via the universal translator. In addition, the Vori language seems to lack words to use for an extended family, instead using combinations of immediate family terms. (VOY: "Nemesis")

  • The Vori language was the primary language form used by the Vori civilization in the galaxy's Delta Quadrant. This language is used by the Vori Defense Contingent when they indoctrinate new soldiers. When Chakotay was conscripted by the Vori after crashing on the disputed Kradin-Vori planet, his universal translator rendered the alien language strangely, leading to his having to learn some unusual phrasings to speak with the other Vori defenders.
