Hi, I'm Brett Gray, and I voice
Dal on Star Trek: Prodigy.

2
00:00:07.799 --> 00:00:09.718
In this week's episode
of Star Trek: Prodigy,

3
00:00:09.718 --> 00:00:12.178
the crew of the Protostar
discovered the wonders

4
00:00:12.178 --> 00:00:13.847
of the universal translator.

5
00:00:13.847 --> 00:00:15.557
Did you see that?

6
00:00:15.557 --> 00:00:16.474
[grunt]

7
00:00:16.474 --> 00:00:19.394
Oh yeah, no one here understands me.

8
00:00:19.394 --> 00:00:21.396
A device used throughout the Federation

9
00:00:21.396 --> 00:00:22.939
for communication between species

10
00:00:22.939 --> 00:00:24.441
with different native languages.

11
00:00:24.441 --> 00:00:26.568
You understand Jankom Pog?

12
00:00:26.568 --> 00:00:29.237
Wait! Jankom Pog understands you?

13
00:00:29.237 --> 00:00:30.363
Wow!

14
00:00:30.363 --> 00:00:33.116
For instance, Gwyn and
Dal immediately realize

15
00:00:33.116 --> 00:00:34.784
how useful translators are

16
00:00:34.784 --> 00:00:37.287
when they finally understand
what Rok-Tahk is saying.

17
00:00:37.287 --> 00:00:38.705
I--

18
00:00:38.705 --> 00:00:39.831
I...

19
00:00:39.831 --> 00:00:40.874
I understand you!

20
00:00:40.874 --> 00:00:42.792
Universal translators have come a long way

21
00:00:42.792 --> 00:00:43.835
since they were first created.

22
00:00:43.835 --> 00:00:46.379
I can't wait to hear what he has to say.

23
00:00:46.379 --> 00:00:48.757
He's such a chatter box, aren't you, Murf?

24
00:00:48.757 --> 00:00:49.883
[chittering noises]

25
00:00:49.883 --> 00:00:51.926
Universal translators are
what make the interactions

26
00:00:51.926 --> 00:00:55.138
on most Star Trek shows so
seamless, and they've been one

27
00:00:55.138 --> 00:00:57.098
of the most useful technologies imagined

28
00:00:57.098 --> 00:00:57.849
by the Trek universe.
