KLI Projects
The diversity of the Klingon Language Institute is nowhere as apparent as
in its sponsored projects. You are invited to take an active role in the
Klingon movement and lend your participation to any of the efforts
described here:
Acknowledging the presence of things Klingon prior to Dr. Okrand's
creation of the language, the ECP is an effort to compile a comprehensive
glossary of all Klingon names, terms, and phrases from the multitude of
canonical fiction published. If you enjoy reading these ongoing sagas and
can take notes while doing so, you can lend your support by writing for
more information (along with a SASE) to:

After completing the Postal Course many members
decide to practice their skills with original compositions. For those
intent on creating original epics in the warrior's tongue, willing to
share their stories and songs, the KWP is there. Send in your submissions
of poetry and prose to:
Klingon Writing Project
P.O. Box 794
Blue Bell, PA 19422 USA
Co-ordinated by Kevin Wilson, the KBTP's has assumed the immense task of
translating the books of the Bible, both the Old and New Testaments, into
Klingon. Obviously the KLI's goals do not include missionary work, but
this is a project worthy of our efforts for purely secular reasons.
Interested members can find out more by sending a SASE to:
Klingon Bible Translation Project

Taking its cue from Star Trek VI, the KSRP has as its goal the
restoration of the complete works of Shakespeare to the "original Klingon."
One of the KLI's proudest accomplishments was the publication of
Hamlet, Prince of Denmark (The Restored Klingon Version) in
March 1996, with a paperback version from Pocket
Books in 2000. We hope to publish translations of Much Ado About
Nothing and Macbeth in the future; these translations
are already in progress. To find out how you can help others to experience
the Bard in his native language send a SASE to:
