From the original 1077 individual Mando'a words created by Karen Traviss, (and 49 scattered throughout other canon sources) Joha'miitbin has expanded this to nearly triple that amount, and is still growing! Joha'miitbin's ongoing goal is to archive as many fanon words as possible from across the web and compile it together in a single, comprehensive resource. Some definitions have been slightly tweaked in the case of synonyms, so that they are often used in slightly different circumstances.

The name Joha'miitbin is an original word meaning "dictionary". It comes from the canon word joha, meaning "language" and the fanon word miit'bin, meaning "book".

To reiterate, Joha'miitbin is a fanon archive, and does not follow "pure canon" as other archives might. Several liberties have been and will continue to be made to adapt Mando'a for use in fanon contexts.
