The Real Reason For English-Speaking Na'vi In Avatar 2 The real reason for English-speaking Na'vi in Avatar: The Way of Water could be very simple: it's an easier sell to audiences.
Despite all of the worldbuilding in "Avatar: The Way of Water," the movie itself is primarily in English. As pointed out by @CountVolpe on Twitter, Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) claims he's been speaking Na'vi so long it now sounds like English –- something that did not go over well with fans online.
The Naʼvi language (Naʼvi: Lìʼfya leNaʼvi) is a fictional constructed language originally made for the 2009 film Avatar. In the film franchise, the language is spoken by the Naʼvi, a race of sapient humanoids indigenous to the extraterrestrial moon Pandora.
The violence isn't very INTENSE, but the film does deserve it's PG-13 rating. Bow and arrows are present, plus some killing and explosions -- still, nothing gets TOO over the top, and its still TWEEN and TEEN friendly. Also expect strong but INFREQUENT uses of s--t and one or two uses of f--k.
Na'vi was designed to emulate the general aural feel and flavor of Polynesian languages, such as Maori, one of the three official languages of New Zealand.

Is Navi a full language?
Of course! For those invested in learning it, Na'vi is a fully-functional language with its own phonetics, grammar, and an ever-expanding lexicon. Na'vi can be learned like any other language, fictional or natural, and the community constantly produces new content and resources to aid in the learning process.
The filmmaker James Cameron faces accusations of Indigenous and Native American cultural appropriation. A boycott movement has been launched to persuade people not to watch the movie.
All the clans of Pandora believe in a shared consciousness through the life force called Eywa, who protects their delicate ecosystem through mutual communication. Avatar: The Way of Water may explain that to give the Na'vi a fighting chance against the humans, Eywa taught English to all the Na'vi clans.
In fact, Top Gun: Maverick out-grossed Avatar: The Way of Water domestically, meaning its failure to crack the top 10 list is due to its international performance, which only accounted for 48 percent of its box office (compared to the 70 percent for all three Cameron movies in the top 10), largely due to it not getting ...
Mo'at and Grace then begin a journey to visit the Tawkami Clan, Pandora's master botanists, hoping that they will have more knowledge of the sickness. At Grace's school, Neytiri and Sylwanin learn to speak English, being regarded as the “top students”, but the school is attacked and Sylwanin is shot and killed.
In the beginning Jake talks about how teaching his children to speak Navi made him learn the language and hear it as English. They have accents because they aren't speaking English. They're speaking Navi.
In an article from the March 2023 issue of Empire, producer Jon Landau talks about how Spider gets the movie's one allowed F-bomb because the character's impulsive choice to play rescuer to a complicated father figure meets the impact of the word: "Spider has never really had a family and he's been searching for that.
Like many Na'vi, Neytiri learned English at Grace's school. Her speech is a little broken and accented at first, but it improves through her time with Jake.
He said Avatar had been playing for more than 10 days, longer than allowed for foreign films. Meanwhile, another report stated that the reason the Chinese government stopped screening Avatar was because there were scenes that were considered to trigger the idea of rebellion in China.
While Avatar 2 is breaking records, in some parts of Japan it is breaking theatre projectors as well due to which many people missed out on this epic cinematic piece. According to Bloomberg's report, several theatres in Japan face problems with running shows of Avatar 2 in its native frame rate.
The drastic decision to ban the release of the most anticipated movie 'Avatar The Way of The Water' in Kerala was taken by FEUOK as the distributors have reportedly asked for more share in the first week of the film's release.
The most obvious distinction between an avatar and a genuine Na'vi is the number of fingers and toes. A Na'vi only has four digits, while the avatar body has five due to the human DNA. At the end of Avatar, Jake decides to transfer his consciousness to his avatar body permanently.
Augustine's colleague Norm Spellman (Joel David Moore) was the father and Grace conceived Kiri before the end of Avatar before somehow giving birth in her Avatar body. However, the more interesting theory is that Kiri is literally the child of Eywa due to some sort of immaculate conception.
Neteyam is the eldest child of Jake and Sully, and grew up with Spider. So, if Na'vi gestates for a similar period to humans, Neteyam is around fourteen years old. Lo'ak is the younger brother of Neteyam, but the two seem to be approximately the same age.
