The Haliian language is spoken by the Haliians, the inhabitants of the planet Halii, which is probably a Federation member.

Aquiel Uhnari, a Haliian Starfleet officer who worked aboard Relay Station 47 in 2369, spoke Haliian as her native language.

Geordi La Forge spoke a little Haliian, claiming to have picked it up while he traveled with his parents as a child, but it is more likely he learned it from watching Lieutenant Uhnari's logs. (TNG: "Aquiel")
