-- Get the selected unit's first name in the Target Language, and The Trade Tongue. ex 'babblefish ELF'
-- When all is said and done be able to enact that change. 'babblefish ELF do'
-- I even do a bit of the gruntwork within.
-- But more specifically 'babblefish English do' for races with beautiful but hard to decrypt names.
-- This is a bit messier what with the parts of speech... not that I've looked into it.
-- /Currently doesn't remotely cover fake identities./ You get the identity right of the unit, not the Hist Fig.
-- Part of why the 'do' does not get done. When that happens there will be a help segment.
