Learn Klingon Online For Free

Klingon Rick Roll Parody - Never Gonna Give You Up
As most fans know, Klingon has been a real language since Star Trek: The Motion Picture was released in 1979. Soon after, The Klingon Dictionary was released in 1985 and Trekkies could learn how to speak the language. Well, now you can learn it for free. Duolingo is an app that helps people learn many languages and it recently added Klingon courses, which have been in development for about 3 years.

The best news is that Duolingo is 100% free and can be used via a browser, Android app, or iOS app. They claim that all you need is 5 minutes a day to learn Klingon. Better get learning so you can feel like a proud warrior.

Star Wars In French

Have you ever wondered what Star wars characters are called in other countries? Well, cartoonist James Chapman clues us in with this cute cartoon. The Millennium Falcon is the Millénium Condor naturally. Chewie is Chico. That seems about right too. But Jabba the Woodsman? I don’t remember that side of the space slug. The Death Star is The Black Star.

It’s fun to look at different languages and compare words. The great thing about Star wars is that no matter what language you watch it in, the story is universal. May the France be with you! Sorry. Couldn’t resist.
