16. "RE: IPSF All-Points Notice"
In response to message #15

Not sure how UF-canon-worthy it might be, but I'm sure I remember something in Diane Duane's novels. The colonists that would later be called Romulan deliberately chose to "artificially drift" their language, going back to an ancient form and evolving it in a different direction. For an Earth example, look at the differences — and a surprising number of similarities — in all the European languages that evolved from the Indo-European root that hasn't been spoken for several thousand years.
