| '''Aquatic''' is the language used by [[SeaWings]] to communicate underwater without going to the surface, where they cannot communicate clearly. 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]].
