Comment on IRL Star Trek dialect of Tamarian language

Mariner, daggers seeking her shoulder.

I like this one, could just mean “a running gag”.

O’Brien, his suffering unending.
Shaw, his response negative.

What would these two mean? There isn’t much of a metaphor, both seem too literal to me.

For Mariner, sure or it could mean experiencing uncommonly bad luck.

O’Brien’s can describe an unfortunate ongoing problem or describe someone who is frequently finding themselves in trouble.

Shaw’s can be applied as denied approval, disappointment over a venture, or a simple emphatic “NO”
