The Klingon language was originally created to add realism to a race of fictional aliens who inhabit the world of Star Trek films and TV series. Although Klingons themselves have never existed, the Klingon language is in fact real.

Invented for the film, Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (1984) by Linguist Marc Okrand, the Klingon language was developed from gibberish to a usable means of communication, complete with its own vocabulary, grammar, figures of speech, and even slang and regional dialects.
