pIqaD paQDI'norgh ii
taghpa' Introduction

Klingon is usually written in its Roman phonetic form, i.e., it uses the characters of the
English alphabet to create the sounds of the Klingon word (pIn tIn). Klingon has its
own alphabet however called the pIqaD. The pIqaD used by Paramount Pictures
primarily as a decoration, but the Klingon Language Institute and other fan groups use
it not only as calligraphy, but as a means of communication. The form of pIqaD taught
in this text was created by Astra Image Corporation and the one recognized by the
Klingon Language Institute. The handwritten form was developed by the Interstellar
Language School for use by students of this text. The pIqaD has 26 letters, the same
number of letters that are in our alphabet. There is not however a one to one
relationship of the Klingon alphabet with the English alphabet and the sounds are
different in many cases.

Learning a new alphabet is an intriguing part of learning a new language; Greek,


Russian, Hebrew, Arabic, Japanese, Chinese and Korean are examples of languages that
use other alphabets. While beginners often seem daunted by a strange alphabet, in
most cases a new alphabet can be mastered by the diligent student quickly.

The pIqaD is not difficult by Terran standards and can be learned very quickly if one
approaches the task properly. First one must practice reading and writing the new
forms until they become old friends. The text will be broken down into lessons that will
introduce the student to a few letters at a time.

Each lesson will present these characters in the Klingon script; present a handwritten
version easily created using a pen or pencil; and then the Roman phonetic version used
in the Klingon Language Dictionary written by Marc Okrand. The presentation of the
pIqaD will be followed by an explanation of the letter, a page to practice writing the
handwritten form and finally an exercise to decipher the pIqaD letters to make an
English word.

pIqaD paQDI'norgh mI' wa' Klingon Alphabet Lesson Number 1

In this lesson you will learn five letters from the pIqaD. Two of the letters are vowels.
In English the vowels are a, e, i, o, u and sometimes y. Strange enough, the Klingon
vowels resemble the English vowels in sound, but their visual representation looks
different than in their English counter parts.

pIqaD (Klingon alphabet)

Script Handwritten Phonetic Equivalent

L l
S S
I or I
A or a
D or D

L ( ) closely resembles its English equivalent in form and meaning.


S( ) looks like a capital L or a wide bodied I yet represents the Klingon letter S.

Because both letters have the L shape an easy way to remember them can be to think of
the word LASSO. The L in the word can correlate to the first L shape (L) which is the
Klingon letter l and the SS represents the second L shape (S) which is the Klingon
letter S.

I ( or ) looks like the English letter Y, but is actually the Klingon letter I.
A ( or ) looks like the English letter E, but is actually the Klingon letter a.

It may be helpful to think of the word EAR for the a, The shape of an E with the
meaning of A (E = A -- r.) The same method may be used for the letter I by using the
word YIPEE. The shape of a Y with the meaning of I (Y = I --pee.)

D( or ) looks like a triangle or a fancy letter d.

It may be helpful to think of it like the Greek letter delta ().

In this lesson you will learn three new letters from the pIqaD. One of the letters will be
a vowel.

pIqaD (Klingon alphabet)

Script Handwritten Phonetic Equivalent

T or t
P or p
U u

T( or ) As you can see, this is a check mark with a hook on both ends.
P( or ) This letter resembles the number 7.

If you can remember check out (associated with the t at the end of out) you should be
able to remember that the check mark is a t. with this method in mind remember 7-UP
(associate with the p at the end of UP) it should help to recall this letter.

U ( ) You learned that the vowel a (A) looks like a slanted E, by removing the center
line you get the look of another vowel u (U). The look is more evident using the
handwritten version of the letter.

In this lesson you will learn four new letters from the pIqaD. One of the letters will be a
vowel.

pIqaD (Klingon alphabet)

Script Handwritten Phonetic Equivalent

G or gh
E or e
M or m
N or n

G ( or ) What looks like a large capital I represents the Klingon letter gh. We will
use it in the practice words like the English letter g.

You might think of bIg (the capital I is followed by a g) to help you remember.

E( or ) This character looks a little like an r

You could think of this as an incomplete E (with the middle and bottom line missing --
E).

M( or ) The letter m looks a little like a cane.

N( or ) What seems to be a slanted F is the Klingon letter n.

In the English alphabet the letter m come before the letter n. The letter m looks a funny
cane ( ). When you place a line in the middle it becomes a slanted F ( ) which is the
letter m.

the English k sound.
