Comment on How realistic is Star Trek’s Tamarian language? - Darmok and Jalad
Nmyownworld@startrek.website 11 months agoThat sounds interesting. Do you have a link to that discussion? I don’t know anything about music theory, but connecting it to the Tamarian language could be a fascinating read.

I’ll take a look-see. Thanks for the heads up.

OK, I found the post from daytrom I remembered, which said the idea came from a beta canon story. So I checked the Memory-Beta page for the Tamarians and it says the idea comes from a short story called Friends with the Sparrows by Christopher Bennett. I haven’t been able to find a copy of it online, though.
