Marc Okrand - Klingon lang 1/5

[ShNbWmN]

I understand why someone would make a language for a film, but what kind of tard actually speaks it? It's imaginary, and therefore stays out of real-life.

@ShNbWmN jeez

[ScorpiusIncorruptus]

As someone who loves phonetics, I can say that Klingon poses such a bizarre and wonderful challenge for me...

Dr. Leonard Hoftstader in real life.

I had a lot of fun with tlhInghan Hol in the early 1990's. I became (back then) one of the foremost "Klingonists" in the state of Florida. I taught a class on the subject at Embry Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona; I translated a TV commercial to Klingon for a Tampa station; and I even conducted a seminar on Klingon in the Language of Esperanto in Clearwater in 1995. I am very rusty today and don't keep up with it, but it was a lot of fun and very entertaining. Thank you Marc!

[NorseRonin]

I watched the next gen first, and watching tos seeing klingons its kind of funny to see they were very different

[V1Ncento]

How lame, better use the time learning a real language which enables you to talk with foreign people... I can't begin to understand the useless of exaggerating the importance of fictional shit like Star Trek.

[jubchuqun]

@V1Ncento - It's called "fun" ... :)

[spacecadet35]

Does anyone know where I can get the performance rights to Hamlet in the original Klingon?

Please send the contact details.

Thanks

The original series klingons were horrible. But, they invented better ones in the movies.
