One of the more famous in my own country is our former Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd, who is a native English speaker and who became fluent in Mandarin Chinese although he did not study the language prior to university. Of all the people alive today who can read Ancient Greek or Anglo-Saxon or Old Norse, where do you think most of them learned to do so? At University. (I would conjecture that these days that is probably also true for Latin.)Hence, if wizard college really is a university then there is no reason at all why exotic languages could not be learned there.</blockquote>
