Bing is reportedly adding the Klingon language to Bing Translator as part of a marketing deal between Microsoft and Paramount, as the studio prepares to release Star Trek Into Darkness. <\/em><\/p>\n

While we’ve been unable to bring up the language in Bing Translator so far, The LA Times (via Engadget<\/a>) reports<\/a> that it is coming today:<\/p>\n

The Bing service will translate text written in any one of 41 supported languages — including English, French, Hebrew and Urdu — into Klingon. Fear not, native Klingon speakers: words or phrases written in that language can be translated into the more than three dozen available tongues.<\/em><\/p>\n

According to the report, Microsoft engineer helped develop the feature, has he apparently speaks Klingon. The LA Times shares a quote from Bing’s Craig Beilinson: “We have people who understand the deep science of linguistics and we also have people who are passionate about the ‘Star Trek’ franchise. This was a labor of love from a lot of different avenues.”<\/p>\n

This isn’t the first time we’ve seen the Klingon Language utilized by a major search engine. You can still see the Google Klingon homepage here<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Star Trek Into Darkness <\/em>releases in the U.S. on May 17th. <\/p>\n
