Klingonaase is the alien species the Klingons' word for their language in John M Ford's novel The Final Reflection (1984), set in the fictional universe of Star Trek. Set before the original Star Trek series, the story is about Klingons and their early dealings with the United Federation of Planets. The Klingon language and culture as presented in the book have nothing in common with the language created for the film Star Trek III: The Search for Spock.
John M Ford also worked on the Klingon supplement for the FASA Star Trek role playing game and the materials created for the novel were also used there.
The suffix -aase means "tool" so Klingonaase is the tool (i.e. language) of the Klingons.
