I dunno, it sounds too...high-and-mighty for such a mundane skill in fiction. :/

...I doubt many people here would know the Greek word for beast. tongue

I dunno, my punny senses are at work here, so I'm not too keen on proposing stuff.

It was asked for this to be called, but the options are still shifting and they're all within a couple of votes.

I doubt the Niven reference is a good idea. It parses weird.

[up] which one is that?

"Zooglot" is a bad idea: most readers don't know enough Greek to figure out what that means. It is basically being "clever" at the expense of clarity.

They're really only one person voting apart. It's way too close.

At this point they're further apart. Ready to call?

I have updated the FAQ thread and Renamed Tropes. Wicks are down to F, but whoever feels like helping can start from the bottom.

Wicks are clean. Should we close here?

Added a link to this TRS thread on the discussion page. Looks like we're done here. Nice job.
