I have a very funny imagine in my head about how alien slang is introduced into the Cybertronian language(s) throughout the war, to the surprise of the mecha who don't regularly interact with non-transformers

#transformers #maccadam #imagine Rodimus saying fuck on the bridge and confusing certain Lost Light crew members #like #the war is VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY long #in some continuities mecha can be off world for millennia #the local dialects are going to rub off on you at least a little bit #how many sayings do you think are in the Cybertronian language (s) that are borrowed off of dead languages #words borrowed from alien races who have been extinct for centuries?#I'm thinking about bots who have been stationed on organic populated exoplanets again #how language changes quicker than you'd expect it to_ how does that factor into million year robots?#do you get the vampire effect where bots get ''stuck'' in a specific era while still present in the present??#thinking
