The microFloridians translate it for him
It’s actually microHonduras
MicroHondas?
Bro I think that’s just called a civic
Just like Han Solo learned to speak the Wookiee language. Shitty writing.
I headcanon that Han can’t understand a word Chewwy says and just goes on vibes.
I don’t think he understood binary during a New Hope. C3PO has to translate for R2 when they first meet.
He understands him perfectly in ESB.
I think it’s implied that having spent enough time with R2, he eventually picks it up. I know that according to the lore, all X-wings are equipped with a translator, so that pilots can understand their astromechs. Given enough time flying together, it makes sense that Luke would need the translator less and less.
Not to mention it just helps move the story along, considering all the scenes they spend alone together in ESB, without C3PO. In a New Hope, C3PO is always around to translate when R2 has something to say.
Well, I guess that clears up my shower thought. Thanks!

Didn’t he have a panel in his X-Wing that displayed communication from R2?
He spent five years with the droid between New Hope and Empire Strike’s Back.
Clearly it was the Force.
It’s simple, George Lucas is a shitty writer!
Luke is reading a translation on a screen

It’s because they’re brothers, and siblings always understand one another
He didn’t.
It’s binary, the dude programmed droids, you don’t think he learned boops and beeps?
He wasn’t a droid programmer, that was his father.
Astromechs did not speak binary, that was the load lifters.
Yes they did.
He used droids on his uncle’s farm. I’m guessing they use a similar language.

In Latin that’s Deus Ex Machina.
Everyone in that Universe seems to. Not sure why.
