I don't watch Enterprise, so I don't know if this fits, but I would've interpreted the term "bimodal" to mean that it uses two modes of communication. That is, it's not sound alone, but sound plus some visual element, perhaps gestures or body language, whereas all known human languages are monomodal, either all sound or all visual. -- "There's no such thing as 'cool'.
