Telepathy

From TARDIS Index File, the free Doctor Who reference.

Telepathy is a psychic ability which allows mind-to-mind communication. TARDISes such as the Doctor's Type 40 have telepathic abilities from dedicated systems known as Telepathic circuits; among other functions, these translate any language for the passengers.
