Well, if you are a native English speaker then it is most likely to translate into BBC English, as this is the closest thing to canonical English there is.

Nulono Could you please explain further please? Wasn't the reason because he proved there's no difference between black and white, therefore not seeing the zebras at the zebra crossing?
Zebra crossing is a type of crosswalk used throughout the world which consists of a pattern of white stripes on the black asphalt, looking like: | | | | | | | | They typically indicate that a pedestrian has the right-of-way even if there is no light or stop sign, providing a safe space for peds to cross without having to wait if Man proves that black=white then he is unable to tell the difference between the stripes of a zebra crossing, leading to an accident of some nature at some point Joke explained and thus, ruined
This was the first fragment of HHGttG I saw, aged 7. Had no idea what it was or what it meant, but it haunted me for years until I was old enough to discover the books.
*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.
The BBC Radiophonic Workshop (who did this music) was the best it ever was in 1981! Same for their work on Doctor Who at the time, when Tom Baker became Peter Davison.
@@cygil1 Well, they've taped over their video tapes a lot. But much of their film footage is still around, by virtue of not being reusable. Those animations were done on film.
Language barriers never stopped wars before. I dont know if the babel fish should be blamed for that. I feel like the creation of man should take that title.
That's just as much of a "load of dingo's kidneys" as the assumption that God refuses to prove he exists because it is much more often that misunderstandings due to language barriers are the cause of wars instead it is communication through diplomacy that stops wars
They didn't have to condense it into movie length, and they didn't have to translate the English humour into something that would work with American teenagers.
I loved these books when I was a kid and wanted a hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy book but, obviously, its sci fi and doesnt exist.......fast forward to today and every tablet and mobile device IS the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy
While it's all part of his absurdist writing, I think Douglas Adams underestimated the impact of communication technology and translation software. While there have plenty of Twitter arguments, I argue that not knowing what another person is saying has led to large numbers of incredibly angry people getting riled up that they don't speak their own language and has led to greater misunderstandings on the behalf of the misinformed public.
But the lack of effort needed to understand the other's p.o.v. causes contempt. Familiarity breeds contempt. Not needing to expel energy to see things from their perspective you just see someome who tefuses to do/say/see things in the correct sensible way. IE: MINE!!
Matthew J If you can find all the episodes you'll find it better than the movie. Even though the effects might be a little dated it's really entertaining and closer to the original book.
I have the series on DVD. It was made in 1981, so naturally the special effects and costumes are dated, but the casting was brilliant and beats the movie by a long shot. It's only 6 episodes and you can watch the lot in around 3 hours and from memory mostly covers the first book with just a bit from book 2 and 3. It was a shame they didn't make more seasons.
It had the advantage of having most of the original radio cast (Trillian being a notable exception, though the TV one was very attractive too). It wasn't so much the date that made the special effects somewhat ropey, it was BBC budgets - famously minimal, and to true aficionados, one of the things that actually appeals. (See, from the same era, some Dr. Whos, and Blake's 7, for example.)

Indeed. In fact, the background music was recorded on a separate stereo channel to the narration - therefore allowing you to just enjoy the music. It's actually very good.
The funny thing is is that if theologicians dispute this reasoning, that means there exists people who still believe God exists, which means that this argument itself creates the doubt needed for God to exist, therefore God maybe still exists

The one drawback from having a Babel fish in your ear is that it allows you to understand Vogon Poetry.

i thought it was bad in any language...
I thought humans were immune due to the fact that we have the universe's worst poetry.
The Babel Fish also translates every language into the most British sounding versions of themselves.

Makes sense when you realise that it feeds on brain wave energy of one of the most stereotypically British men imaginable.
