Language Academies

According to Wikipedia there are over 150 languages in the world which are regulated by some form of governing body which is usually called academy. Academies are (usually) established to maintain the purity of a particular language. They often publish dictionaries that 'suggest' proper spelling and pronunciation. Wikipedia suggests that some language academies are descriptive rather than imposing. The English language does not have a language academy whereas the Klingon language does.
