This group is for everyone who is interested in the Klingon language, as portrayed in Star Trek movies and television episodes. It is totally non-profit, with no membership fees and free personal instruction. We just want to learn and practice tlhIngan Hol.

Every meeting has a theme and things to practise and role-playing so you will pick it up very quickly. We don't encourage sitting back and observing, You WILL be speaking it from day one in a supportive, positive, and FUN atmosphere! Our meetings are not boring language classes, but "language pow-wows" where we can just discuss things Trek and tlhIngan in a fun communal atmosphere, with helpful instruction mixed with interaction and play. Absolutely any activity can be done in Klingon, so if you're interested in an activity that is appropriate for public groups, suggest it as an idea and when there's interest, we'll go and do it.

If you put your mind and spare time to it, you can achieve a conversational ability in Klingon in months, but those with only a casual interest are still welcome to come to any event, just for the companionship or to pick up a few words or phrases that you find fun to use.

Maybe you'd like to learn the words to the Klingon Anthem, and what they mean.

We would be happy to help you get the Klingon language right for whatever project you're working on.

Here we are featured on The Official Meetup HQ Blog: http://meetupblog.meetup.com/2009/08/klingon.html

We do not make up new words nor speak gibberish, but strive to speak the language as described in The Klingon Dictionary and other canon from language creator Marc Okrand. The Star Trek KLINGON Language Group of Vancouver can be considered a recurring qepHom of the Klingon Language Institute.

Speaking a second language is good for your brain! An excellent reason to study Klingon.

Do you remember the interactive CD called "Star Trek Klingon" from more than ten years ago? You can't even run it on your comp anymore, but you can play it on Youtube!!! Go to this link and assume the persona of a young "puq" and solve the mystery of who murdered your father, with Gowron at your side.
