Now there's an interesting source of translation fodder. Project:
translate all 79 episode titles from the original Star Trek series into
your conlang. ("What's Khanga�yagon for 'tribble', anyway?")
Random memory vignette: "For the World is Hollow, and I Have Touched the
Sky" was where I learned the word "simultaneously". I was watching it
as a young child (I don't recall exactly how young, and it was in
syndication so the airdate is no help; I'm not old enough to have
watched the original run). McCoy was explaining to Kirk that in order
to get a secret door to open one had to press three stars on a starchart
"simultaneously", so I ran into the kitchen and asked Mom what that
meant.
