I would both love and hate to hear a "serious" Star Trek fan's explanation for her ability to basically do that.

Maybe it's been explained, but on Earth, there are many languages/cultural dialects/regional-slang/etc. Those all are absent for the Klingons/Romulans/Ferengi/etc.

Dialects are mentioned in Enterprise. In the first episode Klang’s dialect is the reason Enterprise’s UT can’t lock on and translate. Later It’s mentioned in the Augment arc that Enterprise has been programmed with 7 klingon dialects.

I must have forgotten about those episodes. Thank you!

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.

Fun will now commence.
