Tarallian (sp) continuity error?

[KaineMorrison]

The ship that the Away-Team rescued the Klingons from is said to be Tarellian.
Is there more than only group or species of Tellarians?

I'm not exactly sure of the correct spelling, sorry.

I'm referring to the Episode: Heart of Glory

Here's something that could help you out:

The freighter from "Heart of Glory" belonged to the Talarians, a race later seen in "Suddenly Human" (and revisited in my e-novella Typhon Pact: The Struggle Within). The Tarellians were the near-extinct plague-stricken race from "Haven."

Ah.
Thank you. I either mis-heard it, or these mis-spoke at one point in this Episode.

Come to think of it, I think they did mispronounce it the first time it was spoken in "Heart of Glory."

Not the last time something like that happened. Michael Dorn mispronounced "discommendation" as "discommodation" in "Sins of the Father," and for years there were fans (and even a couple of pro writers) who thought that Worf had been "discommoded" rather than discommendated.

Heck, I'm pretty sure there's at least one mispronunciation that became canon. The Klingon word for "honor sword" is batlh'etlh, and I'm convinced that someone misread that as "bat'leth" (or deliberately simplified it to that), which is how the sword came to be called that.

Also, the original name of Deep Space 9 was meant to be Terek Nor, but Marc Alaimo insisted on mispronouncing it as "Terok Nor," so they changed the spelling to fit.

Somehow that kind of attitude suits his Character of Gul Dukat

There was also an episode where Worf said some aspect of the ship (sensors, maybe?) were "dysfunctional."

Well, there were some pronunciation glitches in TOS too. I remember how bizarre my father found it when I once pronounced "crystalline" the way DeForest Kelley pronounced it, with the second syllable stressed and pronounced with a long A (as in "metallic"). And then there's Kelley's infamous reference in "Journey to Babel" to a "serogenic" open-heart procedure, which was meant to be a cryogenic procedure (as confirmed here). I guess Kelley misread it as "cyrogenic" and pronounced it as in "Cyrano."

And Shatner had a couple in the animated series -- "sabotadge" is the famous one, but then there's the way "The Pirates of Orion" had him pronouncing the name "Oar-ee-yon" for some reason (I think maybe he or somebody wanted to avoid confusion with "O'Ryan"?).

I think Patrick Stewart thought each planet was Relva IV or something.
