"Hey guys. Romelle is fucking Altean. And different dialects exist for a reason."
I'm pretty sure pray to god, they only do this bit with Romelle, of correcting her way of saying quiznack, in the first episode of Season 7.
Is this not similar to having a northern friend and a southern friend, but every time the southern friend said 'motha fuckar' the rest of the group just goes 'Um actually, it's mother fucker ' like, I'm sure Romelle knows that, but the way she pronounces the 'z' is clearly just verbally different from Coran and Allura.
Like, this is the same as a British person always correcting a American. By which I mean, Allura and Coran obviously were taught to speak a more proper dialect of Altean. And that's fine. It's also perfectly fine that the colony child. Aka, someone separated from the royal family. Would not speak as properly because she was isolated from it. How is this bit even fair as a critique to be corrected, when that's the situation she came from? Again, to make a irl parallel, just like how Romelle would've been light-years from Altea, America was a whole ocean away from Britain, so eventually some 'proper' pronunciation got changed. And America's dialect began to change within colonies when we became states. Like, my whole point here is there's so many irl history about language and how dialects get changed that makes this 'joke' just so much more redundant.
Also, speech impediments do exist. Romelle doesn't speak like she may have a heavy speech impediment, but, like I can't say the word 'ambulance' correctly even if you forced me to. Some words are just difficult for certain people.
