amango-tea replied to your post “I had forgotten how much I enjoy conjugating Cardassian.”

My admiration for your abilities with that language knows no bounds.

psssssst i make it all up tho~~~

Although, of course, as one of the merry crew of the good ship U. S. S. Take It Too Seriously, I go through this big process…

Like, huh, okay, I need a word that means “beautiful.”

First of all: is there one already? (scans two main references; nope; scans own vocab file; nope)

Okay. Well, what is something beautiful to a Cardassian?

Cardassians like tamed nature. Cardassians like straight lines and smooth curves. Cardassians like perfectly arranged hair and taut tailoring with no dangly bits.

So beauty would be something that tames the thoughts, that makes one’s mind flow in a pleasing way.

Okay: “mind-taming” = beautiful.

Now, do I have a word for “mind”…?

On it goes~~~

One of these days I will post my vocab file for giggles. It’s a beast.
