Give DEs a Module that can hold 1 language. Limit it to 1 Module per droid except protocol droids which can be all Language modules.
Your thinking... Why languages mean nothing now... And your right they don't.
Part Two of the Suggestion
Changing Languages
Make every race know their languages and Basic. Default language on login would be Racial Primary language.
Make it cost 3sp to learn a new language.
I think this idea would really help boost the star warsy feeling. And would also add a lot of value to a Smugglers ability to understand languages.
New players would Default to basic. And after a set time limit in game would default to their racial primary.

Exactly. I've been harping on this idea for a while. It would give protocol droids a new purpose other than hanging out at starports and lottery events. The darn things are supposed to be capable of holding 6 million languages...

I guess about....what is it now?10 months ago there was a "19 questions" that could be asked by the community weekly.
The "Core Systems"/StarWarscorrespondentaskedfor this very same proposal: To make protocol droidsrequired to understand languages.
The response was:
"There are no plans to address this currently. That is not to say we wont do that in the future, but the team is focused on more sweeping issues such as the Jedi Revamp, Smuggler Revamp, Combat Balance, Space, mini-publish and content mini-publish. There is a goal to improve the use of languages in the underworld smuggling skill tree with the revamp, but it’s more focused on the criminal and roguish elements rather than the more typical species languages"

lol I should have known it wasn't a new idea... 
Ohh well. With the added team members working on various different things maybe it's something that now has a better chance at being done Soon(tm)
