Just out of curiousty why does Han make the Refereance 'Hell' twice in ANH and ESB, I think. Some answers: Ancient faith with demons, ancient legends with Hell likely, there is a Star Wars faith perhaps native of Corellia unlikely, Galactic Faith highly unlikely.

Maybe that was the nearest equivalent translation in English to what Han was speaking in Basic.

Sorry, there was a recent thread that discussed whether SW was really in English or if they actually spoke another language that was translated in
the movies by a very good dubbing system.

Yeah, too bad we never know what they are saying. Interesting how they actually show Yuzzhan Vong Lanuage. Almost makes you think Basic=English.

I just chalk it up to suspension of disbelief, although I also like the way the Simpsons do things. "By an astonishing coincidence, our two languages are exactly the same."

Yes the Simpsons way is the best way

See you in France Admrial Piett

"Hell" is pretty general, and many religions have a "Hell" of some sort. Different religions would origionate in the SW galaxy, and perhaps, there was a "galactic religion", like the Church of England.

Like, the Force?

Yes, like the Force.
But I thought it was contradictory to Han's statement: "Hokey Religions and Ancient Weapons are no good for a blaster at your side, kid." Probanly, they kept the word "Hell" to use as swears sort of..thats what I think

Heck what the HELL gave us the idea to call it HELL anyway?

Humans don't speak via eybrow waving, in a huge unvierse your likley to devople quite a few similar phrases and word sounds

I was thinking the Force was not really a religion, but it is more of a belief shared by people of many creeds.
