And you as well, Xavin.

I confess I'm not familiar with Tarnax VII, or with Skrulls.

I cannot say that I am surprised to hear that. I spoke briefly with your Captain, some time ago, and he was not familiar with my people, either. I suppose we do not exist in your universe of origin. Tarnax VII no longer exists in my universe, though our Empire still inhabit some fifty planets throughout various galaxies.

Like Vulcan...

I'm sorry for your loss.

Indeed.

But there is no need to linger on such thoughts. Considering that you are asking these questions, I am assuming that it is acceptable to ask you, in turn, which languages you are able to speak.

Of course. Of the official Federation languages, I am proficient in English, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Irish, Japanese, Latin, Russian, Spanish, Swahili (my native tongue), Swedish, Romulan, Vulcan, Klingonese, Bajoran, and others.

Magnificent. Though I am familiar in passing with several of those Earth-languages, there are many on you list that I have never before heard mention of. I only hope that one day I am able to present such an impressive variety of languages mastered.

Thank you, Xavin. The last four are alien languages- as a communications officer, my scope must extend beyond Earth. Perhaps we could have a conversation one day- I'd love to hear Kree and Majesdanian in person.

The languages of races not native to my universe, I believe. I would be more than happy to demonstrate Majesdanian and Kree to you, Lieutenant. Skrullos, also, if you would like.

Yes, I would like that very much.
