   Here though the word is used as adjective and that's a different matter.   
   If "alien" as a noun can be seen only as a "creature from outer space"   
   we can't say the same for the adjective that retains its "broad meaning"   
   in any situation. I may be influenced by my native language but I've   
   always thought so even for the English language.   
      
   Glad to learn otherwise if that's the case. ;)
