Star Trek: TNG - "Sins Of the Father"

[CaptPike]

There's a question on another board about this TNG episode. Near the end of the episode, Worf accepts "discommendation". That is what I believe I hear, when I watch it. And that is what all the Trek books call it.

Now, there's a certain poster who claims.....it was actually, "discommonation". Both are words, both would fit. Now, that would be ok if the poster were claiming that is what he hears when HE watches. However, he actually claims it was "discommonation" when the show originally aired and was later dubbed to become "discommendation", because no one knew what the former meant.

So...

Dis-comm-END-ation.

I like the way Picard used to pronounce "Saucer section." "Prepare to detach the Soh-cer section!"

I heard discommENDation. I heard the last "d". Someone needs to fix their hearing aid

I haven't seen this episode. I have being a poor trekie who wasn't alive during the shows original airing. TNG is the stuff that I haven't seen... which is sad.

I googled "discommonation" and the word doesn't even come up. I don't know what the guy is talking about.

He claims it means.......a British university terms that maens being denied the common, i.e., being declared persona non grata


Man, only Trek geeks can get caught up in this kind of thing. Ain't it great?
