Hearing that ignorant masses apparently think Klingon isn=92t a =93real=94 =
language and that it=92s just a geeky thing with a few Star Trek-centric th=
ings you can say with it, I feel like telling you stuff about my non-Star T=
rek-centric life, in the Warrior=92s tongue, for no other reason than to pr=
ove the point that the criticism is actually ignorant.
No, I won=92t claim that it=92s not geeky. I=92m merely arguing with the as=
sertion that you can=92t speak in Klingon on a variety of topics. I also wo=
n=92t promise that I=92ll be universally understood. Likely, some people he=
re will understand me easily, while some may argue with my word choices or =
grammatical constructions. Some of them will likely be right, but that miss=
es the point. =
The point is, here=92s stuff I can say using the language.
