<p>As the language is a spoken language and as spaces are required to separate
words and as words sometimes have to be spelt out (where each letter in the word
might be multiple words) and as the program checks words ignoring punctuation,

<p>As you can see the quotations cause the word (or words if more than one) after
the quotes to be duplicated. Another example is circumvented in the try.sh
script.</p>
<p>Note that if the command was:</p>
<pre><code> $ ./prog.alt $(./prog cat attack)
catattack</code></pre>
<p>there would still be no spaces but this is how it has to be.</p>
<p>So the fact the Navajo to English translation sometimes repeats words (if it can
translate at all - again see the spaces issue) or does not have spaces is a
consequence of how the language worked and thus how this must work too.</p>
<p>Thus this is not a bug to be fixed as doing so would cause other problems (and
also take it way over the size limit). The author did experiment with ways to
solve this but the closest method broke output where it would otherwise work.
The try.sh script demonstrates how you can often get the same output but because
of words being multiple words (if it is not in the Navajo military dictionary)
translation back to English is not perfect.</p>
