The first 2-3 seasons are great. And that’s because it’s excellent characters in an unusual situation with just a splash of mystery/paranormal. The end of the show sucks, because they wrote it like they knew where it was leading, but they didn’t. The big reveals are very unsatisfying. Would have been better if they just ended it with no answers and let it develop organically instead of shoe-horning a “this is what it was all leading to” ending into it.

Just rewatch the last season. That’ll cure you.

Oh man Garak is one of the best characters in Trek. And that’s a competitive list.

Holy hell yeah you did. How would you go about doing that in a single expression? A bunch of back references to figure out the country? What if that’s not included? Oy.

Which is a pitfall for anyone conversing in a language that isn’t their first, I’d say.

I remember in the mid-aughts my brother hacked his iPod — the wheel kind, this was pre-iPhone — to hold the entirety of the text of English Wikipedia at the time.

Doch nicht allen! Es gibt Dutzende von uns. Dutzende!

They may have tried that once before…

Stöckl, probably, if you’re Austrian.

Weirder than Dutch? I do not believe this.

Okay I’m curious. With Danish being a Germanic language, how much are you benefiting from cognates and the like when making your guesses?

How about Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzung? That’s my personal favorite, though it lacks umlauts.

Was that Edelweiss? I don’t know what to do with this.

It is. I’m American and millimeter was my first thought as well

Unless they are themselves Jewish…

Oh no, not Lucas!

Well in that case I’ll have a rum and Coca-Cola.
