What were the samuri language?

The samurai did not have their own unique language. They spoke Japanese, just like everyone else in Japan.

However, it's worth noting a few points:

* Dialects: Different regions of Japan have different dialects of Japanese. Some samurai might have spoken in dialects that were considered more prestigious or "refined" than others.

* Formal Language: Samurai were expected to use a more formal and polite form of Japanese in social situations, especially when interacting with people of higher rank.

* Military Terminology: Like any profession, samurai had specific terminology and vocabulary related to warfare, strategy, and their code of conduct, known as Bushido.

So, while the samurai didn't have their own language, they did use Japanese in a way that reflected their social status and profession.
