You must know, the klingon language is the first officially recognized fictive language. It's a real language with own grammar and several dictionaries.

Now that I've given the matter some thought, I recall there's an episode of TBBT where the guys are playing Klingon Boggle,they use a sort of dictionary to look up the words :mrgreen:

I thought that Tolkien's Quenya (Eleven Language) was the 1st to be recognized. Tolkien paved the way with fictive language having created multiple full languages with rules and everything.

This could be, too. I don't know anything about Quenya, but the first words in klingon were used 1979. The whole language exists since 1984.
Klingon is an ISO-Certified language (ISO 639-2) so it's a real language.

I don't know how it is with Quenya. It could be the first, too.
