Terrible name, and we have a great alt name in polyglot already.

And 3P0 for cunning linguist? Linguist maybe, cunning not so much.

He's not a linguist. He's a polyglot.

I realize this wiki is less formal, but this trope title passes "informal" and goes all the way to "crude and tasteless."

“This trope is named for the cunning most linguists display throughout a given movie, always saving the squad's collective asses with only their quick wit and quicker language skills, and is not at all a pun on the word "cunnilingus".”

Did anyone else believe this before they clicked the links which led to Blatant Lie and Suspciciously Specific Denial?
