Do I have to know–or learn–how to speak Klingon?
No, most of our members don’t. We may learn a few words or phrases to round out our characters so that when a member of the public asks if we speak Klingon, we can throw a few words at them. If you have an interest in languages, however, a couple of our members are fluent in Klingon and are active with the Internet-based Klingon Language Institute–yes there really is one–so the opportunity is there if you’re interested. But it’s not a requirement.
