I had need to look up words in Klingon before ... I found an entire wiki devoted to the subject ... including the theoretical underpinnings to what they were doing here is the link if anyone is interested.

The guy who 'created' Klingon, Marc Okrand, is a linguist by profession.

Edit: To prevent any confusions ... I would like to point out that I'm not proposing creating a 'klingon-type' of language here on Santharia.

Recently I watched some episodes of the The Big Bang Theory and wondered, how one can play scrabble in a non existent language - in Klingon, but obviously it is developed far enough!

:(  Art, is this your little way of forcing me to do an entry?

I see the board has been deactivated. Lets hope for a quick solution!

Files have been replaced again, but the question remains how long this will last. SMF support will have a look at the security problem.

It has been hacked. The third time in 3 days. I need to replace the changed files again (won't happen before evening) - and then see what the SMF support recommends as a strategy.

Arti, could you maybe take a look at the RPG board? I got a message from my anti-virus program and now I can't access the column on the right with the list of current threads and the shoutbox. Thankies :)

Artimidooor.. could you please add the Northern Sarvonian Tribe's map to the map menu? As you know, my mouse over does not work :( I could't find it right now, though I know it does exist somewhere.
