It could help with the plot or with tactics before an ambush.The second was useful for two or more members of the party to communicate with each other in a language not understood by the enemies.Comprehend Languages and Tongue spoil the thing a lot, but still you have to keep the spells ready or make a scroll. There are still situations when to know the language is more handy than to cast the spell (like if you are sneaking and should have a silenced comprehend languages ready).</blockquote>
