*Zebra Crossing:* The British English term for a crosswalk. Named after the striped pattern. Also, the Babel Fish would have you covered when it comes to languages "spoken" partially or entirely through pheromone * signals. This is because it's NOT the speaker's sound waves that the Babel Fish picks up and translates; rather, it's the speaker's BRAIN WAVES that the Babel Fish picks up and translates. * Pheromone: An airborne chemical substance that's used for communication by certain animals such as ants. And, I imagine that many sapient extraterrestrials might also "speak" through pheromones.
