Languages of Star Trek

Gene Roddenberry's 1966 TV series "Star Trek" has spawned five more TV series, ten movies, and hundreds of books.

With a universe of aliens, Star Trek has inspired many constructed languages (ConLangs) including Andorian*, Bajoran*, Borg, Cardassian*, Ferengi*, Klingon, Romulan, Trill*, and Vulcan.
