Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Darth Vader's iconic chestplate actually contains letters in Hebrew, but their translation is hotly disputed. Darth Vader's armor is an imposing sight, but it also serves another function. Anakin Skywalker's defeat at the hands of Obi-Wan Kenobi on Mustafar left his body ravaged, and he was sealed in armor to keep him alive.
There are numerous writing systems in the Star Wars franchise, with most created for the galaxy far, far away, and a few from reality. While difficult to see in the Star Wars original trilogy films, the Darth Vader costume’s chest plate includes Hebrew characters. The Hebrew writing forms what might be one of several phrases that tie into Darth Vader’s original trilogy character arc and the characters may have an in-universe counterpart as well.

The Hebrew Characters On Darth Vader's Chest Plate Don't Have A Direct Translation Close Darth Vader's chestplate contains several Hebrew characters, some of which are turned upside down.
The translations are inexact, but it's notable that these parallel Darth Vader's famous change of heart at the end of Return of the Jedi. Although Darth Vader’s actions throughout the saga are arguably irredeemable, the fact that he turned on Emperor Palpatine to save his son redeemed Vader in the eyes of viewers and many characters in-universe, with Anakin Skywalker appearing in Jedi’s final scene as a Force ghost alongside Obi-Wan and Yoda.
What Language Are The Chest Plate Characters Written In From A Star Wars Perspective? Close The Star Wars franchise does occasionally feature the Latin alphabet , but the most common writing system is the fictional Aurebesh. There are, however, plenty of other fictitious writing systems in Star Wars, such as the Mandalorian writing system, the ancient Sith language, and several unnamed writing systems, such as the characters seen on the targeting computer of Darth Vader’s TIE Advanced X1.
