But of course. It's a miracle that everyone has a larynx, let alone the resonance and lingual dexterity required for speech. Not everyone has teeth though, and that presents a problem with the dental plosive and alveolar fricative, and Clakkers couldn't possibly manage the bilabials either. Come to think of it, how does a mudokon pronounce the nasal consonants?

I have two questions:
How can Munch in MO put some dynamites in vykkers lab at the end ?

Munch and the fuzzles raided the armoury shortly before, while Abe was managing by himself like the good old days.

There something weird with scrabs in MO: why aren't they killing each other ? In AO an AE they can't live each other without fighting. (I'll hope that you will understand)

Possibly because those levels were for the nesting scrabs. Those hollow rocks with grass poking out the holes are scrab nests arranged by the ancient mudokons. Alternatively (or coincidentally) they were set in regions of scarce food, and scrabs could not support themselves without a large territory in which to hunt without rivals trespassing. Or perhaps the ancient mudokons filled their temples and vaults with plants, fungi or lichen that release spores of pheromones that have the effect of initiating the transformation of an underling scrab into an alpha scrab.
The wilderness scrabs may have been females and/or underlings under the command of a single alpha. This may be normal scrab behaviour, or it may be permitted by living in a land of plenty, unlike the desert. even when vast ecological damage is dealt, scrabs stampede and rampage together on the hunt for food before vacating the area before they resort to intraspecies competition.
Yes, a lot was cut from MO due to Microsoft not giving OWI enough time to make the game. I know Abe and Munch were to visit Sam, the Mudokon queen, and we'd learn a lot more about her.
