Want to learn and practice spoken Klingon?

NuQNeH! Hi everyone, I'm Charles and I'm taking the initiative and starting this group because there is a demand for it! It will of course be totally non-profit and we will meet outdoors and learn and practice Thlingon Hol (the Klingon Language) taught by me and anyone else who wishes to share their knowledge of it. But rest assured, as one who speaks 7 languages and loves Star Trek I feel uniquely qualified to organize the events and subject matter for this. I plan to give every meeting a definite structure and things to practice and role-playing so you will pick it up very quickly. There won't be any sitting back and observing, you WILL be speaking it from day one in a supportive, positive, and FUN atmosphere! I will be there to help you along the way, individual attention is a given. I like to refer to our meetings not as typical boring language classes, rather as "language pow-wows" where we can just discuss things Trek and Thlingon in a fun communal atmosphere, with helpful instruction mixed with interaction and play.

Hear this rousing rendition of the Klingon Anthem! One day you will be able to do this too, and more. ;)
