AS far as I know they only covered the translation problem once in ST. In DS9 Quark and his brother and nephew end up in 1949 new mexico (some place called Roswell I think
). He wonders why his translation implant doesn't work. His brother says it would only happen if there were large amounts of radiation in an atmosphere, but who would be stupid enough to explode nuclear weapons in an atmosphere
.
In one episode of DS9 they are being attacked by Klingons. There is a conversation with them and then the Gowron (who must be speaking his language all along) says something in Klingon which Worf has to translate. It is assumed Gowron pressed the "Do not translate this sentence" button.
