We did not end up understanding each other in the end.

It was kind of a cool episode except it made no sense. :/ If a species had a language of phrases, they'd need to understand the words that made up those phrases.

One of my favourite episodes.

Wonder if it's possible that a culture could go through a disaster, and the as the civilisation is rebuilt the original meaning of the words would be lost, bit like cockney rhyming slang.
