The '''Interrogator''' is a device developed by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]]. It is a small [[portable computer]] used to translate [[Covenant]] languages and intended for interrogation, hence the name. It features a microphone, speakers, a digital ink keyboard and every piece of linguistic data the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] has on the Covenant languages.<ref>'''Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe''', "Blunt Instruments", ''page 197''</ref> However, as the available data is scarce, the device's translation capabilities are very limited. For example, it failed to translate the speech of the [[Yanme'e]] nicknamed [[Hopalong]], until the creature tampered with the device's inner circuitry, making direct translation possible. Normally, the Interrogator speaks in the accent of the Midwestern [[United States]].<ref>'''Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe''', "Blunt Instruments", ''page 199''</ref>
