WORLD-BUILDING PEEVE ALERT!
When Jhamel is talking to Shran in his recovery room she asks him “Is it true that where you come from, the temperature rises above freezing for weeks at a time?”
Now Andoria is pretty well known to be an ice world. I’m not saying that there shouldn’t be, as Shran puts it, “a heat wave every few years”. What I am saying is that if Andorian culture and language developed on a world where the default state of water is in it’s solid form, ice, then context would demand that the phase change they would be most familiar with (and be referencing in this case) is melting, not freezing. So what Jhamel should have said is “Is it true that where you come from the temperature rises above melting for weeks at a time?”
Had to get that off my chest.
