Sailorasteroid: Again, excellent points.

Usually, I like to debate and wonder about things in Sailor Moon, but sometimes certain subjects just make me go "*shrug* eh.", and this is one of them.

Joey: The question is, Rachel, does he like you? ''Cuz if he doesn''t, then it''s all just a moo point.
Rachel: Huh...a...moo point?
Joey: Yeah. It''''s like a cow''s opinion. It doesn''t matter....It''s moo.

I've never been one to question those things. They just magically can all understand each other.

I just figured that since Earth being the whole 'one country' thing and the Moon being so close that they would have similar language structure or something. In the manga Queen Selenity mentioned something about the moon being there to guide and watch over them before everything went wrong. But who knows.

These things aren't something that's really vital to know to enjoy the series. Just pretend that everyone has universal translators on.

Cop-out means that you try to get out of something with a lame excuse. It means you just don't feel like doing it, so you come up with an excuse to get out of it.
