I'm just an average Star Trek watcher. I mean, I like it very much, but if I compare myself to most of the posters in here, I wouldn't call myself a fan.

That said:

  • How did you know, this ad is related to Star Trek
  • What language is it (I'd guess klingon, but am not sure)
  • Could you translate this?

It's klingon! I just know what it looks like from a life of nerding, same as with tengwar, Time Lord script, the unitologist writing from dead space. Couldn't tell you where exactly I picked any of that up. That said. I can't translate it. The glyphs make it borderline impossible to use translation software :/

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Hmm, I can recognize Klingon and tengwar, but not the others. I can still read Daedric from when I played Morrowind all the time, but it takes me a while to remember what the individual glyphs mean.

Yes that's definitely Klingon, sadly can't translate it tho

People around these parts would probably ask me if I even like star trek :)
