The International Association of Hyperpolyglots (HYPIA)

The International Association of Hyperpolyglots (HYPIA) is an international body representing the unique and growing population of hyperpolyglots worldwide. We adhere to the definition of Hyperpolyglots as proferred by the general consensus to mean “a person who is fluent in six or more languages.”  Although small, our association boasts some of the most talented emerging linguists around the world, and we look forward to welcoming new members all the time.

​We are dedicated to a non-partisan and non-political approach to fostering and encouraging linguistic diversity. We are also committed to the preservation of moribund or dying languages which are in urgent need of interlocutory resuscitation.We believe in fostering an inclusive and international association that brings out the very best in our members.
