You've never been to a galaxy far far away and you absolutely no idea how they speak. Maybe their language is far more advanced then us at this point in time.

They all speak English. Can't be that advanced.

My point is why make assumptions? Ruddo, please.

Probably the single worst line of dialogue in any non-OT film is in Rogue One. There's nothing modern or "street" about the line. But it doesn't fit the character and throws a brick into the scene and the momentum of the film.

Meanwhile, Finn, yelling more modern dialogue really doesn't bother me because it fits him and what we know about him so far.

Which line in R1? I found For Jedha!! A bit eye rolly but it passed.

The entire theater groaned both times that I saw it. Some laughed. But pretty much everyone took their eyes off the screen to look at the people they were with. Completely took people out of the movie.
