| '''Aquatic''' is the language used by [[SeaWings]] to communicate underwater without going to the surface, where they cannot communicate without drowning. So, instead of going up each time to talk, SeaWings use Aquatic. Instead of spoken words, Aquatic uses a series of talon gestures and the flashing of the bio-luminescent stripes along the dragon's body. Because only [[SeaWings]] possess these stripes, Aquatic is not spoken by dragons from any other tribe because they cannot physically speak it due to lack of bio-luminescence. However, RainWings could probably imitate it. [[Princess Tsunami|Tsunami]] is a rare case of a SeaWing who does not understand Aquatic very well at all, courtesy of being raised in a cave by the [[Talons of Peace]]. [[Webs]] didn't teach Tsunami Aquatic because he didn't think she would escape with the other [[The Dragonets of Destiny|dragonets]]. [[Riptide]] and [[Princess Anemone|Anemone]] taught her some aquatic when she came to the [[Kingdom of the Sea|Sea Kingdom]]. Riptide taught her how to say "squid-brain", and said to say it next time she saw [[Whirlpool]].
