I thought the Saurian/Dino language from Star Fox Adventures was neat, so I toyed around with understanding it a bit. It was very simple.

My sister got me the Conversational Klingon audiocassette for Christmas when I was in middle school. I listened to it to try to learn the language a little for a while---------later on, I'd just listen to it when I couldn't sleep.

Not really. Closest thing would be when I started reading the Silmarillion and I was figuring out some of sense behind the names of some people and places.

Other than picking up a few plot-significant words in LotR, Trek, et cet, no.
I've long wanted to *make* a fictional language, though.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"
