Klingon in “Star Trek” and Dothraki in “Game of Thrones” are invented languages that linguists concocted to enhance the world-building of fantasy works. Students taking classes online in UK’s College of Arts & Sciences can learn to create their own language under the tutelage of Andrew M. Byrd, Associate Professor of Linguistics.
The class, LIN 200: How to Create Your Own Language, organizes students into groups of three. They learn how words can be constructed, posit word orders and even create their own writing systems.
