Tongue of the Warriors

Over the past fortyfive years, the Klingon language has become much more than just a line from a movie. Just like Star Trek, the resulting language, Klingon, has become an integral part of human culture. Klingon is ubiquitous, not only in Star Trek, but also in other series, films, advertising, and literature.

In this comprehensive work, Klingon expert Lieven L. Litaer explores the origins of the Klingon language, revealing previously unknown details that will be of interest to more than just Trekkies. Readers are taken on a journey through forty years of Klingon's development and use, beginning long before Star Trek.
