ghItlhpu' SuStel, jatlh:<br>> If you use {-ghach} in a translation, you should automatically look <br><div>> for a simpler way to translate.<br><br>A fair point, but I didn't just do it like this because I felt like I had no other alternative. In English, "Resistance is futile" is a very impersonal, imperious and almost overly formal phrasing of the sentiment (of course, considering what the Borg are, that's not surprising) and I was trying to capture some of that sense in the translation.<br><br>With that said, I understand where you're coming from. Qov's suggestion of {'omlaH pagh} is excellent and I might go with that.<br><br>QeS 'utlh<br></div> </div></body>
