You reverse the polarity, just briefly, to blow all of the space dust out of the filters and improve your airflow to get you running in a pinch. You might have to do it more than once, and you definitely have to do a proper space dust filter change at the next starbase, but in an emergency, this should get you up and running.
He means you other guys. Not me. I know why we reverse the polarity. I just don't want to tell you because it's been classified above the Omega Directive.
Things were different back then. They didn’t discover reversing the polarity until the mid 24th century. Before that as long as you kept your dilithium crystallized and your deflector shields up everyone was happy.
During Red Alert, the walking attraction for Universal Studios: Fan Fest Nights, the warp core brings to have issues. You see plasma exhaust and the two crewmen in Engineering yell “reverse the polarity”.
"forward not working? Try reverse!".
And sometimes, when you need to rock back and forth to get going, "modulate the beam!"
We can't find reverse!
It flies like a truck!
Is it like rolling a bit the batteries of the TV remote when it starts to fail?
Woah, english please! I can't understand all this techno jargon.
Shut up and eject the warp core!

Reverse the polarity of the neutron flow
How else can you attract polar bear engineers
Is this a crossover from Narnia?
sad His Dark Materials noises
I would have assumed Lost.
But what about the tachyon pulse!!
Unplugs the cord, rotates it, plugs it back in.
There are 4 people! /s
I keep my polarity in a superposition.
its reverse the polarity, or inverse whatever beam weapon they ar using.
I think it's Picard who doesn't know.
It's such a standard procedure that there's no need for the commanding officer to know the details.
He wasn't always a commanding officer. Did they not reverse the polarity when he was younger?

Then why did Spock say "Ready to reverse polarity, Mr. Sulu?" in the episode "Who Mourns for Adonais?"
Oh, well, you know Vulcans. Always ahead of the curve.
Good save
He had a gut feeling it was the right move.
