ZandraJoi Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 I had been thinking of the movie I like, The Fifth Element, & how the character Leeloo spoke The Divine Language. There are people who have learned Klingon from Star Trek. So, I’m curious if any of you learned or even just dabbled in learning a fictional language. When we watch Stargate SG-1 as well as The 100, my husband & I picked up a few words they spoke in these shows. Mainly we did it to translate what they were saying into English, but some of the words tend to stick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lämmchen Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 There used to be a kids show called Zoom and they spoke a language called Ubbi Dubbi. I sent away at one time for the instructions on how to speak it and it was totally confusing to me. My friends all knew how to do it easily though!

The Blackangel Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Klingon is so damn big and popular among Trekkies, that there is actually a Klingon dictionary and other books that you can buy to learn it and become fluent in it. I've never been into Star Trek myself, but I do find it odd that a fake language has garnered such a fan base. I could be wrong on this next one, but I think the same thing has been done with the language from Avatar. I don't remember exactly what the language was called.

Empire Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 I learned English almost entirely from watching TV, so probably yes. Then again English is my words 😛 I mean long deep words that I might not even know. ZandraJoi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
