The language is spoken fluently by around a dozen people on Earth, but following the publication of The Klingon Dictionary in 1985 around 250,000 people have a basic grasp of the language’s grammar, syntax and vocabulary. The works of William Shakespeare and even parts of the Bible have been translated into the guttural language.
