Yes -- the recording played for Hoshi quite clearly contained the phrase
{bImoghqu'}. :)
I've only watched the first hour so far, but the closed captioning reveals
that pronunciation is the main problem. There was definitely a {jay'} in
one line, which came out sounding much like /jey/, and lots of words seem
to have been scrambled completely by the actors. The language is probably
not the {ta' Hol} we know, though it's close.
>Probably going to be more of a source for the Vulcan linguistic crowd......
Probably not, actually. T'Pol explicitly mentioned her instructions not to
speak Vulcan when Hoshi said something to her which was obviously less than
flattering.
