Phonetic processor
The phonetic processor was a piece of technology, part of the universal translator.

In 2151, Hoshi Sato needed to run Klaang's Klingonese dialect through the phonetic processor so the UT could properly translate. ()

Later that year, the phonetic processor had trouble locking onto the Axanar language. Sato then had the processor search for synonyms of "pump". ()
