I enjoyed that Darmok episode. The language part of it reminds me of a Voyager episode called "Nemesis". It was the one where Chakotay gets caught in the internal conflict of another planet. They were using our language but different words than we would use. For instance, instead of saying, "Close your eyes" they would say something like "Shutter your glimpses".

The episode was not one of my favorites but I loved the speech pattern. It reminded me of the beauty to be found in the English language. It is all in the way you combine the words at your disposal.

Interesting, I don't remember the Attached one smile

I wonder if there's a whole season near the end that I stopped watching ...

I know there must be something I've missed because I never knew that Riker married Troi!

Oh, the movie. I've seen the movies but somehow I don't remember that. I guess it's been a long time. Thanks.

You mean Deanna wasn't naked when she got married as is traditional for Betazoids?

LOL you know I forgot all about that. I know she was in a wedding dress. Maybe they had a two part ceremony, I'd have to watch the movie again smile

Dani, there's an Enterprise episode called "Terra Nova" in which characters use a speech pattern VERY similar to that used by the characters in Voyager's "Nemesis."

I haven't watched much of "Enterpise". As much as I love Scott Bakula, that show didn't do it for me. Because of the time period it is set in, the characters seem too much like present-day humans. For some reason, I like that on Stargate: Atlantis but not on Star Trek. I've always liked the fact that the actors on various Star Trek shows were able to make me believe that they had never seen a TV or a cell phone except in a history class.
