On another SF Debris binge...
In "Riddles" Neelix asks Tuvok the date riddle even though the pun doesn't work in either Vulcan or Talaxian (and odds are neither planet has a fruit similar to the date anyway....). PNQ: While I'll buy that Tuvok (and most Vulcans in Starfleet for that matter) has learned English in order to communicate with other Starfleet officers, what about Neelix? Does he depend on the Universal Translator? How many Delta Quadrant languages has he learned? Not to be a jerk, but I can't see any Delta Quadrant race besides the Borg inventing the Universal Translator (well, maybe Arturis's race only known as Species 116). PNQ2: Come to think of it, how did Neelix and Kes communicate? Do the Ocampa learn the Kazon language just in case and she used that to talk with Neelix?
