Here’s what some of your fellow fans had to say on the matter:
“Vulcan. Klingon is such a messy language. You are not pronouncing the words correctly unless you do a lot of spitting while talking Klingon. But Vulcan is a slow and relaxing language.” – Wendy Sutton Maag
“Vulcan, of course. It is only logical.” – Valerie Fedele
“Vulcan! But Klingon will win...” – Johann von Ruthendorf
“Orion. Can't have much fun with an Orion slave girl if you can't talk their language.” – Dieter Kempf
“Ferengi would be cool, but it's got to be Rihannsu.” – Kelton Hathaway
“Klingon is just so emotional. I could really get my point across, if I spoke Klingon. Even if no one else knew what I was saying.” – Brianna Lynn Engels
“Vulcan. Klingon is too mainstream.” – Rob Burch
“Ferengi… My lobes tingle with excitement.” – Rich Wiatrowski
“I'd actually like to speak an Andorian dialect.” – James Martin
“I wanna speak Gorn.” – Mike Daly
“Vulcan and Orion; I know enough Klingon to get by.” – Steele Seeley
