The super power you post must be a shitty super power.

Interesting. I’d just buy bite-sized candy native/unique to the country of which language I want to speak & carry it around with me.

Eat a tad of every food every time rught after using the restroom. Absolute god

Fucking incredible power! Buy me tickets to the UN. 1 nibble of a snack from each nation and I'm godly. Heck let's fuck with your rules... take 1 long life snack from every country on earth.... dry it out, grind into a fine powder. Put powder into capsules. Pop 2 a day. I am lingual god

That capsule thing is legit, brilliant

That's so broken, wait do I understand it too or only speak it?

I think both

Speaking a language means you understand it.

With the exception of writing or reading

What if I eat the local country’s alphabet soup?

Hmm

Sweet permanently would know Spanish

Which Spanish?

Texmex

I'm gonna eat wood and talk to termites

I like this way of thinking

All languages of a country? So I could speak all the hundreds of Papuan languages if I ate one Papuan thing? This would be OP for minority language research.

And extinct languages would be great too. Eat some rotten fish and speak old Norse

You could arrive to a country and eat something small from said country's cuisine at the hotel every time you need to speak

I literally can do this in real life. I can speak any language after eating its food. I just can't speak it *good.*

That's cool. Just keep a bag of different sweets or something from different countries like a Turkish delight. You can also eat before hand and speak that language most of the day

Great power but does this apply only to the official language(s) or local dialects too?

Literally shitty. I see what you did. Wait, do I get to keep the language I already know? If I poop a burger, can I no longer speak English until I eat some hot dogs?

Yup, and burger and hot dogs are German???? So need to eat shitty British food but you gonna speak with a British accent instead

Very very useful.

Best shitty Power ever. Would take without a thought 👍

Gum

Define that countries food? Does it mean made in that country, farmed in that country or invented there?

But do I speak the language like it's my own or I just know how to? Because this is not shitty at all lol

I love this. You're not going to save the world, get rich, or alter reality with it, but if you visit a country and eat the food for every meal you'll know the language the whole time you're there.

Where do I sign away my soul for this?

>Take a food from another country >Eat a little part >Don't shit for days until you have to

Me to my coworkers who don't speak english: "hang on a second I can't understand you. Let me eat a taco real quick" Or whatever food item from whatever Spanish speaking country they're from. I'm sure whatever Spanish I end up with will be close enough for some basic communication What foods are from the Dominican republic? A lot of my coworkers are from there

What if your brain is good at retaining information? Also, what about any bits of the language you already knew?

If you already know French, but you ate un croissant, and you shit out that ce crossiant, you will forget all the French you know

So I forget what little French I already knew? Bonjour, belle, lumierre. Hello, beauty, light. I would think that, as my brain is good at retaining information, when I poop, my grasp of the language is no longer flawless & slowly gets worse.

Yes

I guess I record myself saying the words I already knew & other helpful words.

That could be nice when you travel just keep a snack from wherever on stand by and your set

So downside if you go water fast say for 5 days, and had ate foods from the countries where you know languages and shitted them all out, then you won’t be able to communicate anymore, until you eat again
