I'm not sure if this was ever brought up but i was wondering if anyone ever made a language for the k'luth or some form of alphabet
if anyone knows anything please say so I'm pretty curious.

As far as I'm aware from reading all the public fiction documents, no official language or alphabet was ever established with a direct human translation. Since they communicate psychicly/telepathically, I'd imagine such things would be hard to find out from 'guests'.

What frob said.
We have the word 'fish' and then we have the word Salmon, followed by the next 'Atlantic salmon'.
A K'Luth would just send a mental picture over of the 'Atlantic salmon'. The receiving K'Luth will instantly know that is is a fish, coming from aquatic world and any other observations the sending luth made that comes with that memory.
A Worker K'Luth will look at a object and doesn't know it. He sends out a psychiatric ping with a almost 3d view of it. A process example would be that a nearby Aristen K'Luth receives it and remembers its function and how it should be handled. it sends the instructions, functions or warnings back in the form of a reply ping so that the Worker and any other in the vicinity knows what it is for later usage.
This is something Humans do not have but would be Highly desired. as evidently due to this Telepathy K'Luth Ground combat is ultra efficient.

GO ahead, make your own kluth language, then present it here.

I think it would be nice for k'luth to have one even if it would be pointless...you know for laughs and giggles.

A written language would be necessary, at the very least. kluth telepathy has a range to my understanding, so it would not be possible for two ships to communicate with one another without committing unnecessary resources to creating a string of relay ships between them.
or, as another example, if a kluth discovered a cave with a danger within, and needed to warn other kluth following behind while still traveling forward, it would have to resort to some sort of written warning.
I do beleive there is also mention in the history of written kluth records of their awakening and the MI, and that humans first learned of the MI through translations of kluth records.
Lastly, even if it hadn't been created before, a written or verbal language would be absolutely necessary after having met humans since we cannot communicate telepathically to kluth.
Also note that kluth ships have kluth names, and are not limited to their human reporting names. if kluth communicated purely in telepathic imagery then this would not be the case. [ This Message was edited by: Lark of Serenity on 2012-02-08 16:59 ]

Couldnt be explained better than this.
For example , when we want to say something in kluth , lets say "Eledore is da man", we transmit 3d image of a fat naked man in a server room all alone and downloading all the p0rn from internet.
Or when we want to say jackarse , we transmit the image of jack's actual picture from facebook + an arse.
Nah just kidding... those are good kuddos.
;P

I believe K'Luth ships have equipment to magnify their PSI abilities, like they concentrate their PSI into missles (Remember them?), and they would have had a written language before they became PSI aware.

Thats how azure believes they would sound, not what you could call a canon source.
