Well, KotoR was easy. 50% of the NPCs were aliens and talked in gibberish.

I wouldn't say 50% but it was easier yes ....

But why not use it with Oblivion? Not ALL races need to speak the same language ...

Actually, they do, mostly. Remember Morrowind? They all speak Aldmeris. And you're in the capital, so...

Hmm... I know the voice acting for Gothic 2 was not that great, really (at least, for the English version, since it is a German game).

I beat Gothic 2 three times and I thought the voice acting was GREAT!

Even though they had the same guy who did Xardas to do the Dragons, but still...

Oblivion won't be nearly as good if they take out S'wit and N'wah.

But, yeah, everyone in Cyrodiil would probably speak...Imperial? Cyrodiilic?

I think the common language of Tamriel is Aldmeris, but I could be wrong.

And Striker...okay?

I'm pretty sure it's Aldmeris, the language of the High Elves.

n'wah = "Foreigner" or "Slave" - An insult/taunt.
S'wit = generic insult... kind of like dumbass or jerkoff

The best match for "n'wah" would be "Outlander". Not an insult in its original form, but used as an insult by many.

but it seems to me that n'wah and s'wit are just phrases from the Dunmer language and not part of Aldmeris, although I'd imagine there are similarities between the languages as they all are evlen (mer) in origin.

Yup, they're dunmer phrases, but I think you'll probably hear 'fetcher' said a few times in Oblivion.
