[Star Wars] How could Ziro the Hutt speak Basic and the other Hutts could not?
gpt
Hutts absolutely can speak Basic, there's no physical reason they can't. They just view it as an inferior language to Huttese so they generally refuse to, plus it can help to intimidate and mess with people in business dealings. A proper Hutt will take every damn chance they can get to have the upper hand.
