And to think that the UN actually acknowledged it as a real language, as did the US and I think a couple other countries.! lol
Imagine, somewhere there is a whole group of Klingon fans who will build there own community, then they will demand that anyone living there speak Klingon ... LMAO! I can see border guards demanding a person to stop or they will open fire! all in Klingon.. that would scare me out of my skin! lol _________________ I'm A Romulan with an Attitude and I'm not afraid to use it! |

It was ccepted as a language because it technically IS a language - Gene Roddenberry gave it gramma, rules, and so on. It's basically what Tolkein did with Elvish, just even more so. 8O

We need the same for Romulan, Cardassion, and a couple others.
Although I must submit that Klingon is about the most popular. _________________ I'm A Romulan with an Attitude and I'm not afraid to use it! |

There are also books available such as "The Klingon Dictionary" for a few quid off Amazon

You know it wouldn't suprise me, if some kind of society exists that has this as their primary/only language..
It's something like the Quenya language. Quenya is a language, created by Tolkien (author of Lordoftherings). For those intrested, here is a Quenya course: Would be funny if you could talk klingon and a few people you know could do also. Talking that way at places where other people are. _________________ "Logic is the beginning of wisdom; not the end." -- Spock (Star Trek VI) Q: The trial never ended. We never reached a verdict.

LOL
speaking of... My brother is a member of a Klingon Group here in Denver, and they well actually MArch in some parade (St. Patricks day I think) and sing klingon songs.. then they all go to a few bars and only speak klingon. it is weird to watch the reactions of "normals" as this group of 20 come Marching in LOL.. I would get to the bar early order a soda and get a table to watch everything. LMAO! _________________ I'm A Romulan with an Attitude and I'm not afraid to use it! |

wow, kinda cool. Do they actually know the Klingon language, or just some sentences and words?
