over the top
ok so i was watching some early season tng episodes yesterday (instead of continuing ds9 like i should be but i needed some tng ok) and in s1e12 “the big goodbye” picard mentions he can’t spell.
from the episode transcript:
TROI: But you spell knife with a K.
PICARD: I spell knife with an N. But then, I never could spell.
so headcanon that picard is bad at spelling. between dictating his logs and assuming there is good future spellcheck/autocorrect for typing he can get away with this pretty easily. but if he has to handwrite something the old fashioned way it is riddled with spelling errors. and on at least one occasion the crew was able to tell a handwritten note from the captain was forged because everything was spelled properly
also since picard was born in france we can assume french is his first language and english most likely his second. so his french spelling is fine but he never got a hang of english spelling, which is what he’s referring to in the quote in the transcript after all
